Steve Rifkind Speaks After #RIPDMX

Last night Former Ruff Ryders leader’s manager stepped up to simmer down the Internet. Steve Rifkind came forward to address the Internet going into a frenzy over #RIPDMX causing mass confusion and sadness. However, today the news is tragically true.

As of late Thursday night, the rapper’s manager and close friend Steve Rifkind told TMZ  … his condition has not changed. However, sources close to his family tell us, X’s mother, Arnett Simmons, his fiancée, Desiree Lindstrom, his ex-wife, Tashera Simmons and his baby mama, Yadira Borrego, along with his children, have become a tight-knit group over the last week while praying for improvement.

Steve had also issued a video statement to ask fans to stop pushing the #RIPDMX messages across social media.

“Hey everybody, please stop with posting these rumors. DMX is still alive. Yes, he is on life support but please, it’s not helping anybody by having them see these false rumors. Let the family relax for a night. You will be hearing the statement from the family sometime tomorrow. I’ve been with DMX for the past three years so the only thing I ask is stop with the rumors. He is still alive and he is on life support. Thank-you.”
