DMX Sings 'Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer,' Does Not Bark Into Microphone

DMX is known in the hip-hop community for a variety of things. One is uncanny ability to deliver lyrics in an extremely powerful and intimidating manner. Another was barking uncontrollably into the microphone between verses. That's why many people are shocked to find that DMX singing the Christmas classic "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer."

The DMX rendition of "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer" was recorded back in September, when the prolific rapper stopped by Power 105.1 studios in New York City. Around that time, video surfaced of the rapper telling the Power 105.1 DJs that he wasn't a big fan of Google. The rapper wasn't exactly sure how to use the service, and he wasn't keen on the word "google," either.

Thousands of people viewed the DMX-Google video, but little did they know that there was an even better video filmed during his visit to the radio station's studios. In the latest release from the Power 105.1 studios, fans get to see one of the most intimidating personalities in the rap game singing the lovable Christmas song.

"Oh, I know this one!" DMX says after the DJs request that he sing the tune. As he begins to recite the lyrics, his confidence grows, and he eventually sings the whole tune front-to-back. He adds in a few "Come on!" shouts in the middle to personalize the song. He also pounds on the table in front of him to give a more modern beat to the song.

If you love "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer" as much as we do, you're likely going to love this video. It not only features one of the most iconic rappers of the 1990s, but one of the greatest Christmas songs of all time.
