DMX, Yonkers, NY, 1997

The lighting on DMX in this shot gives it an almost cinematic feel, like a still from a documentary about the golden era of hip-hop. It’s a raw, authentic portrait that captures his energy perfectly. I’m glad I picked this up for my collection.

This photo instantly took me back to the raw energy of ‘90s hip-hop; the candid shot of DMX in Yonkers feels so authentic. The black-and-white finish really captures the grit of that era perfectly.

The contrast really makes his expression pop against that Yonkers background. Captures the raw energy of the 90s hip-hop scene perfectly. Only wish the print were a bit larger for my wall.
