Warryn Campbell scores DMX’s original players for new project
Def Jam and UMe present the release of DMX’s Let Us Pray: Chapter X on December 13th. It will be available on all digital platforms and in physical configurations, including CD, standard LP, and a limited-edition color variant exclusively available at select e-commerce retailers. DMX’s prayers will accompany original music from multi-Grammy Award-winning hip-hop, R&B, and gospel songwriter and producer Warryn Campbell.
This extraordinary work highlights the spiritual side of the late four-time Grammy Award-nominated multiplatinum hip-hop legend and man-born Earl Simmons. Tuning into the power of his words, Campbell notably crafted new original music to accompany DMX’s signature prayers and instrumentally scored these spoken-word messages straight from the artist’s heart. It also boasts contributions from various superstars across genres, including Snoop Dogg, Mary Mary, Killer Mike, MC Lyte, LeCrae, Terrace Martin, Lena Byrd Miles, and RoyzNoyz Orchestra.
“Working on Let Us Pray: Chapter X has been one of the most fulfilling experiences for me as a creative,” Campell shares. “When you hear the voice of DMX, it inspires instant creativity and what better way to showcase who X really was than through prayer. I believe I can speak for MC Lyte, Killer Mike, Snoop Dogg, LeCrae, Mary Mary, Lena Byrd Miles, and Terrace Martin when I say it was an honor and privilege to be part of this amazing work.”
Now, “Favor” featuring Killer Mike, Mary Mary, & RoyzNoyz Orchestra introduces Let Us Pray. The track boasts heavenly harmony from Mary Mary and a reflective, powerful, and poetic turn from Killer Mike in between DMX’s prayer.
Ultimately, Let Us Pray: Chapter X reflects upon DMX’s depth, emotionality, and spirituality and invites fans to celebrate his legacy from a new standpoint.
