Snoop Dogg expressed acknowledgment and praise for his close friend DMX who died on Friday.
The late Ruff Ryders hitmaker “passed away peacefully with family present after suffering a catastrophic cardiac arrest”, the hospital where the rapper was under treatment mentioned in a statement.
During an interview with TODAY with Hoda & Jenna the 49-year-old talked about his much-loved friend Earl Simmons.
“I’d like to say that DMX was wanting to glorify his relationship with God and he was always pushing the right thing,”
“He was always trying to help other people. That leads me to believe that’s why God chose this angel to come back home with him.”
“He did his time out here,” he said.
“He did what he was supposed to do. He influenced, he inspired and he represented. So, DMX, his soul will live on and his music will live on, as well. We thank you, brother, for what you brought to us.”
“But if you listen to him talk and you listen to what he testified … it’s either that R&B or the gospel music that always pushed the message behind DMX.”
