Apparently DMX, who has collaborated with some pretty impressive female vocalists in the past, has his sights set on two more: Sade and Adele. When asked why he wanted to work with Sade, he gave a simple but heartfelt “I love her.” But his reason for wanting to collaborate with Adele reminds us that DMX is one of hip hop’s real gems. “I love chubby girls,” he said, providing poignant commentary on the ironies of a music industry that simultaneously elevates and objectifies its female stars. Nicely done, Dog Man. I’m sure Adele is also grateful. And, fresh off vocal cord surgery, she is undoubtedly looking for someone with a vocal technique worth emulating, so maybe a collaboration is indeed forthcoming?
