By Adam Barnhardt

DMX's "X Gon' Give It to Ya" has been closely associated with the Deadpool franchise since its inception. The iconic rap track first appeared in some of the film's marketing collateral and eventually made it into the feature itself during the movie's final battle. After DMX passed away Friday, fans of the rapper and film are paying their respects to the late artist. In fact, the Deadpool scene is being celebrated by those who credit the song for elevating the moment as a whole.

"We are deeply saddened to announce today that our loved one, DMX, birth name of Earl Simmons, passed away at 50-years-old at White Plains Hospital with his family by his side after being placed on life support for the past few days," a statement released from DMX's family reads.

The statement adds, "Earl was a warrior who fought till the very end. He loved his family with all of his heart and we cherish the times we spent with him. Earl's music inspired countless fans across the world and his iconic legacy will live on forever. We appreciate all of the love and support during this incredibly difficult time. Please respect our privacy as we grieve the loss of our brother, father, uncle and the man the world knew as DMX. We will share information about his memorial service once details are finalized."
