Funkmaster Flex Says Rappers Are Using DMX's Tragedy For Clout

by Daryl Nelson

Funkmaster Flex says there are too many people showing fake love to DMX.

The rapper is still in a vegetative state after overdosing on Friday and suffering a heart attack. A prayer vigil was held for him on Monday at the White Plains, N. Y. hospital where he's being kept, with friends and family members in attendance. 

Flex spoke to Page Six about X and criticized those who show him support on social media but weren't there for him during tough times.

"People can find the picture that they had with the person that’s going through a tragedy in 30 seconds,” said Flex. "But you haven’t called that person in 10 years ... Let me see the picture of you when you went afterwards to his house because you was so concerned. I never see that picture where they go to the house. Nipsey Hussle passed away and every washed up rapper made a pilgrimage to LA to go to the Marathon store to take a picture or to get their cards swiped. Bro, Nipsey needed that support when he was alive."

Is Flex right?
