10 Ridiculously Awesome Christmas Songs To Get You In The Spirit

4. DMX - Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPXWZxtDooY Best YouTube Comment: "Merry DMX-Mas to all!" - FckTV DMX is not exactly known for his €œcuddly€ side. But everyone was a kid once, X didn't come out of the womb a gangster. Tough or not, most of us grew up listening to Christmas carols, DMX included. And that brings us to the time DMX sang Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer - his way. During a trip to New York€™s Power 105.1 radio station, he was asked if he would do "the honours of spitting" the classic Christmas song. The rapper didn't even need a lyric sheet as he rattled off a Christmas carol by heart. While banging out the beat on a desk, X sings the lyrics and throws in his trademark "What!" and "C€˜Mon!" ad libs just for good measure. And that's the story of how Rudolph became an honorary Ruff Ryder. Who knew that DMX was such a holiday softie? In fact, he seems to really identify with Rudolph€™s hardships. You can almost feel it in his voice when he barks €œthey never let poor Rudolph play in any reindeer games.€ Heavy.
