“Y’all gon’ make me lose my mind
up in HERE, up in here
Y’all gon’ make me go all out
up in here, up in here
Y’all gon’ make me act a FOOL
up in HERE, up in here
Y’all gon’ make me lose my cool
up in here, up in here”
Lose My Mind the classic head banger would have made great background music for the season premiere of “Iyanla: Fix My Life”. Multiplatinum hip-hop artist and actor DMX and Inspirational speaker Iyanla Vanzant clashed big time. Iyanla found herself in hot water attempting to reunite DMX with estranged son Xavier. The inspirational speaker’s “in your face” approach did not go over well with DMX. Iyanla asked DMX to listen to Xavier and she received a tongue lashing in return:
“Lady, please,” DMX says, launching into a string of curse words. “Listen, this is my son right here. I’m talking to him!”

“Lower your voice,” Iyanla tells DMX. “Pump your brakes. Pump your brakes, brother. This is the only thing I want to say: He’s trying. He’s not feeling heard by you, X. Let him finish a sentence.”
According to AllHipHop News DMX is raving ANGRY at his depiction on Iyanla: Fix My Life. DMX’s representative Domenick Nati of Nati Celebrity Services, sent AllHipHop.com an exclusive comment denouncing the show’s effort to fix his life.
“DMX agreed to be a guest on ‘Iyanla: Fix My Life’ with the understanding that she would be helping his relationships with his 10 children,” the statement says. “When he arrived for the taping, most of the content was focused on his struggles with drugs and poor parenting. Iyanla did not ‘fix’ DMX’s life just made his image worse, and does not have DMX’s personal written consent to use the footage.”
All we can say is WOW! Let’s all keep DMX and Family in prayer.
If you missed the show last night check it out HERE!!!!!
This was so hard to watch, I had to turn the channel twice! no words can describe what is to look at someone is that crazed, jumpy, erratic, and just completely lost. If seeing himself in that state doesn’t promote him to change, nothing will. He’ll be TMZ’s next topic. That was horrible for everyone involved.
Iyanla could not fix DMX’s life, DMX need to get off of the drugs before ANYONE can fix his life with his family. It was just sad to see how DMX’s son was hurting when DMX wanted a hug from him. We just need to lift that family up in prayer
