DMX: Soul Of A Man BET Reality Series

by: Mark Lelinwalla

On his new reality series, DMX: Soul Of A Man, BET cameras track the rap star from the hustle of New York City to the carefree desert of Arizona. DMX: Soul of a Man debuts on BET Wednesday (July 12) at 9:30 p.m. (ET/PT). “On Soul Of A Man, DMX is more than a rapper, more than a movie star – he’s a human being, with tragic flaws, amazing charisma, undeniable talent, humor, love and street toughness,” Reginald Hudlin, BET’s President of Entertainment, said via a press release statement. “If you don’t know who DMX is, this series shows you why he’s a star. If you’re a DMX fan, this series shows you a side of the man you’ve never seen.” The reality series is bound to show what really moves the fierce MC on a daily basis, whether personally or professionally. DMX has sold more than 20 million albums and appeared in movies like Belly, Romeo Must Die and Exit Wounds. In addition to seeing the renegade side of X that likes to drive fast, fans will have an opportunity to see the Yonkers-bred New Yorker open up to his cowboy neighbor Buddy about his parentless childhood. “One thing you'll notice immediately is how ‘X’ lets you completely into his world in a way that most artists won't,” said Tracey Edmonds, the executive producer for Edmonds Entertainment, via a press release statement. “There is no vanity with him, no pretense, no self-editing; which in turn makes for a very entertaining, water cooler show that the viewers will appreciate.” Viewers can catch encore episodes of DMX: Soul Of A Man on Wednesdays at 1:00 a.m. ET/PT and Fridays at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.
