After several of late rapper DMX‘s albums reappeared on the Billboard 200 after news of his passing broke, three of his songs have now returned to another chart — the Hot 100.
The Grammy-winner’s “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem,” which he recorded in 1998, blasted up to the 16th spot this week, making it the song’s best showing on the chart to date. Its previous high was number 94, of which it obtained in February 1999.
Not only that, “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem” is now the late rapper’s highest-charting single, officially besting his previous record-holder, where he joined the The Lox on “Money, Power & Respect” that also included vocals from Lil Kim.
