Yo, listen, we just got a sick revelation in about the legendary DMX. His uncle and former manager, Ray Copeland, also known as Uncle Ray, has shared the untold stories about X in an exclusive interview. And believe me, these stories are so salty your ears will tingle.In the interview, Uncle Ray tells how he arranged DMX's funeral expenses after record labels and other music colleagues refused to contribute. He gathered a consortium of people who together raised $150,000 to organize DMX's funeral in 2021. Initially, he received little to no financial support from Ruff Ryders, Def Jam Records or other industry figures closely associated with the artist. \When it came time to bury X, Uncle Ray was talking to everyone: Ruff Ryders, Swizz Beatz, Steve Rifkind, Def Jam. He told them what it would cost, but everyone said, ‘I don't have it. So he hung up and thought, ’Never mind, I'll take care of it myself.‘ With the help of business partner Germaine Miller and attorney Ron Sweeney, he arranged everything himself. Germaine Miller even put up all the money for the funeral - $150,000. Later, Def Jam gave $35,000, but that did not cover everything. Kanye West took full responsibility for the event at the Barclays Center. \Úcle Ray stresses that DMX had no life insurance. Fortunately, there were people who loved him and had good relationships that allowed them to help. He also emphasizes that the public perception of the funeral is not entirely accurate. For example, the images of a red monster truck transporting the casket through Brooklyn are not as it seems. X was not on that truck; his body was in the hearse behind him en route to the Barclays Center. \This interview sheds new light on the events surrounding DMX's funeral and raises questions about responsibility and loyalty within the music industry. It is clear that Uncle Ray did everything he could to give his nephew a dignified farewell, despite the obstacles he faced. This story is so salty that it shakes the entire hip-hop scene.What do you think of these revelations? Let us know in the comments below.#DMX #UncleRay #HiphopNews #Salt Stories
