DMX suffered a drug overdose Friday night and is currently in the hospital ... and the prognosis is not good.
Sources close to the rapper tell TMZ, the OD occurred at his home at around 11 PM. Our sources say the overdose triggered a heart attack.
DMX was rushed to a hospital in White Plains, New York and is in the critical care unit. We're told he has "some brain activity." Another source says he's in a "vegetative state" and doctors have cautioned he may not make it.

Rip to the great man. I remember reading about his childhood many years ago and how as a young kid he was accused of stealing something by a neighbour and a gang of boys beat him savagely to the point that he almost died. He said that day changed his life forever and he carried that aggressive energy with him ever since. I don't think he ever came to terms with what he faced growing up and maybe that contributed to his drug abuse. His spiritual side was very powerful and compelling too. Prayers to his family. [Reply]
