Previously, DMX’s family issued a statement to VladTV that cleared up some of the reports related to DMX’s condition following a heart attack he suffered. The family noted that the rapper was in ICU in critical condition. Now, DMX’s lawyer has given an update on the rapper’s status and also noted he was initially “given wrong information.”
DMX’s lawyer—Murray Richman, noted that he could not confirm if the heart attack was drug-related but could confirm a heart attack did happen. Along with that, Richman said DMX had “been taken off life support and is breathing on his own.” The lawyer went on to say, “It would be disingenuous of me to suggest that I am not a worried man.” Richman would later say he was “given wrong information” and that X remains on life support. Stay tuned for more updates.
