DMX has long been known to fans as “the Dog,” but he may soon make that official. The rapper is looking to drop the “Dark Man X” stage moniker for spiritual reasons, according to MTV.

“It’s just the whole Dark Man thing,” he told MTV Europe. “Because if you look at it, from a spiritual point of view, the Bible teaches us that we can speak things into existence. … And Dark Man, you know, it may not be the best name for me.”

DMX’s long-delayed LP, titled “Year of the Dog, Again,” is slated for an August release. His new single, “Lord Give Me a Sign,” deals with his quest to get closer to God.
