DMX – Party Up (Up In Here) (Enhanced Video, Edited)

This work delivers a powerful impact with a raw rap that lays bare anger and frustration, paired with a striking beat reminiscent of a fire alarm.

The passionate performance and aggressive lyrics blend seamlessly, shaking the listener to the core.

Included on the December 1999 album “…And Then There Was X,” it was released as a single the following year.

It was also featured in the films Gone in 60 Seconds and Bad Boys, and grew into a song synonymous with DMX.

Interestingly, although DMX was initially reluctant to make it, it ultimately became one of the defining works of his career.

With its energetic sound and strong message, it’s an exceptionally effective track for boosting motivation or as workout background music.

Used as an insert song in the movie Frozen, many people have heard it, so I think it’s a track that really gets the crowd going.

This version, used in the ending, has a poppier finish than the one used in the film, making it a fun song to sing.
