Brain activity tests administered on DMX have reportedly revealed that he has yet to regain brain function.
According to TMZ, on Wednesday (April 7), the 50-year-old rapper underwent a series of tests showing a lack of improvement in brain activity since he was first rushed to the hospital on April 2.
His family is allegedly grappling with the difficult decision over whether to take X, born Earl Simmons, off life support.

According to The New York Times, DMX’s manager Nakia Walker said he is currently in a "vegetative state.”
