Things are still up in the air for Earl ‘DMX’ Simmons after he was rushed to the hospital after collapsing in his home. He’s currently still in ICU in critical condition, and while it’s been reported he’s been taken off the ventilators and breathing on his own, they say he’s not out of the woods yet.
According to a report from TMZ,
“A family member of X’s tells TMZ … paramedics tried resuscitating him for 30 minutes, and during that time he was deprived of oxygen. Doctors told the family the lack of oxygen severely impacted X’s brain. One family source said, “It’s not looking good.”

It’s also been reported that his children are flying in to see him. The heart attack that put him in the hospital is due to a drug overdose and sources say that the OD occurred at his home around 11 PM Friday night.
He was rushed to the hospital in White Plains, New York, where he has ‘some brain activity, though he’s in a ‘vegetative state’. Doctors there have cautioned that he may not make it.
