Walker also added, [he is] in a vegetative state, [with] lung and brain failure and no brain activity,”. “We are just praying and waiting. Praying and waiting” as reported by BuzzFeed News.

DMX, unfortunately, has been struggling with drug abuse for most of his career. In 2019, he also checked himself into rehab.
