“The Convo” was labeled an “absolution poem” by Vibe Magazine… and rightfully so. The song is a reflection of what he’s done/doing, and he’s admitting to his wrongdoings in an attempt to connect with God.

The Vibe article also discusses how there’s a scar under DMX’s left eye as a result of getting jumped by 6 guys, leaving him with a broken jaw.

The incident took place a year before X released It’s Dark and Hell is Hot, and his jaw was still wired shut when recording the album. But that didn’t keep him from spittin' in the studio; ask Ja Rule.
