X Gon Give It To Ya was released by DMX in 2002 as the lead single from the soundtrack to the film Cradle 2 the Grave. Produced by Shatek, the track became one of his signature songs, known for its barking ad libs and confrontational chorus. Clips of the intro later spread across meme pages, sports edits and short form video, where the opening lines became shorthand for someone arriving with confidence. Its recognisable voice and beat keep it in circulation long after its chart run.

This clip captures DMX's raw, barking delivery at the start of X Gon Give It To Ya, built around a heavy beat and an aggressive call to action. His voice is low, raspy and confrontational, pushing forward with short, punchy lines that feel like a challenge.
