DMX’s Manager Says Rapper Is Still Alive As ‘RIP DMX’ Trend On Twitter
X’s Manager Steve Rifkind, Says “DMX Is Still Alive”
There have been contradicting reports on rapper DMX’s condition. Recently, comedian Luenell took the world by storm when she wrote “RIP DMX” on her Instagram Story, complete with a dove emoji that suggested the Rap legend had passed away.
The legendary rapper has remained on life support since he was admitted into a White Plains, New York hospital after suffering a heart attack reportedly brought on by a drug overdose.
It has also been reported that his brain was deprived of oxygen for 30 minutes. Following Luenell’s false claim, “RIP DMX” started trending on Twitter with people dropping tributes to the icon.

DMX’s manager, Steve Rifkind, has since come forward with a video update. In it, he pleads with the public to stop making false reports about DMX’s health.
“Please stop with posting with the rumors. DMX is still alive,” said Rifkind. “Yes, he is on life support but please. It’s not helping anybody by seeing these false rumors. Let the family relax for a night. You’ll be hearing a statement from the family sometime tomorrow.”
He continued, “I’ve been with DMX for the past three years so the only thing I ask is stop with the rumors, he is still alive, and he is on life support. Thank you.”
Although Luenell has retracted her statement, Tiny insists the rapper is dead.

Saw a lot of RIP DMX but he’s not gone. Fact check before just tweeting people. It’s a mans life. Not an excuse for likes on your tweet https://t.co/JJvauRnVoB
