During an interview that aired on HBO, Jay Z recalled being in awe and a little intimidated, while watching the late, DMX perform live on stage.
He said he was watching a show that DMX was opening for him and the whole arena went “f—ing crazy.” According to Jay Z, it was so loud that it was deafening.
Jay Z marveled over how he handled the crowd. One minute, the audience was loud and “going nuts,” and then X started a prayer and the whole arena was crying.
