“You will be hearing a statement from the family sometime tomorrow. I’ve been with DMX for the past three years, so the only thing I ask is just stop with the rumors. He is still alive and he is still on life support.”
Rifkind added that he expects DMX’s family to put out a statement Today
DMX was put on life support at a White Plains hospital over the weekend, according to his longtime attorney Murray Richman.
“He had a heart attack. He’s quite ill,” Richman said.
The attorney said he could not confirm reports that his client overdosed on drugs, and said he was not sure what caused the heart attack. Sources told TMZ that DMX overdosed at his home around 11 p.m. Friday.
“I’m very sad about it, extremely sad. He’s like my son,” Richman said. “He’s just a tremendous person, tremendous entertainer, tremendous human being. And so much to offer, so much to say. Not the run-of-the-mill rapper. A person of great depth.”
On Saturday night, TMZ reported it received a statement from a representative of DMX that said: “Last night Earl ‘DMX’ Simmons was rushed to the hospital after collapsing at home. At this time he remains in ICU in critical condition. Earl has been a warrior his entire life. This situation represents yet another road he must conquer.
“The Simmons family appreciates the overwhelming outpouring of heartfelt love, encouragement, support and prayers for Earl. Earl is someone whose life and music have been a source of inspiration and strength to so many people around the world. It is reassuring to see his fans return that same passion and energy to him during his time of need.”
Outside White Plains Hospital Saturday night, family friend Brenda Ramsey hoped for a miracle.
“This is going to either be a huge testimony of his strength, if he makes it. If not, we are at the end of the pandemic and what a way to go out,”
