Meet Tacoma Simmons Late DMXs Son
Tacoma Simmons (born August 27, 1999) isthe second son of DMX, the late American rapper whose real name was Earl Simmons.
Tacoma receives the most attention from the media as the late DMX’s offspring. His father was one of the most successful rappers of the nineties and early 2000s, selling roughly 74 million records worldwide by the time he passed away at age 50 from a heroin overdose.
Tacoma Simmons was born on August 27, 1999, and is 24 years old. He is an Afro-American and possesses American citizenship. His birthdate means he was born under the Virgo zodiac sign.
Tacoma is the second child of DMX and TaneshaMonét Carey. You may readily recognize DMX as the well-known American rapper and actor who passed away in 2022. His mother, Tanesha, like her ex-husband, was part of the showbiz industry for a while. He was raised with three other siblings.
DMX’s son spent most of his boyhood in Mount Kisco, New York, where he was born and raised. Speaking of his education, the music composer completed his studies at Fox Lane High School and is said to be in college. Although the name of his university isn’t common knowledge, Tacoma is currently learning to be a music instructor.
Tacoma Simmons is the son of Earl and Tashera Simmons. His parents were married for about 10 years, and Tacoma and his three siblings remain the only products from that marriage. His father was one of the most famous rappers in the 90s. His 1998 first album, “It’s Dark and Hell”Is Hot,which sold over 250k copies in its first week, went on to become a cult classic.
His other most popular album was his 1999 album titled “And Then There Was X.” The most popular single from that album,Party Up,was one of the biggest rap songs released that year. As an actor, DMX also appeared in a number of films, includingRomeoMust Die,Cradle to the Grave,ExitWounds, andLast Hour.
TaneshaMonét Carey was just 11 years old when she met the rapper and fell in love. They became friends after a few years of acquaintanceship, dated for several years, got married, and then finally split up.
The demise of Tacoma’s parents’ marriage was rumored to be a result of infidelity on the rapper’s part. Earl and Tashera were together until the mid-2000s, after which they decided to separate for good.
Tashera Simmons is currently in her early fifties and has enjoyed a fulfilling career as a reality television actress. Tashera, who is currently single, has worked on several TV shows, includingTrippin,Starter Wives, andUncensored, all of which she appeared as part of the main cast members. She currently works as a podcaster and lives in New York, which is coincidentally her hometown.
Tacoma is extremely close to his mother, and the divorced mother-of-four has always displayed her undying love for her children by posting countless images of them on her social media handles.
DMX definitely took sowing wild oats seriously. He had countless children both within and outside his marriage, and those of them that have been publicly acknowledged number about 15.
However, of the 15 children linked to Tacoma Simmons’ father, only three of them are his direct siblings. They are two boys – Xavier (born in 1992) and Sean (born in 2002), and a girl – Praise Mary Ella (born in 2005).
Xavier Simmons is currently 31 years old. Sean Simmons is 22 years old, while Mary Ella, the youngest among them, is 19 years old.
A former employee of The Ball Factory and a graduate of Westchester Community College, Xavier is an actor and musician. Sean, Tacoma’s younger brother, is reportedly a manager at Red Lobster. Sean has previously worked for the Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester.
After the four children that DMX had with his ex-wife Tashera, he went on to have at least 11 other children with different mothers. Their names are Sasha, Sonovah Junior, Aaliyah, Exodus, Aidyn, K’ydn, Jada Oden, Michelle Walton, Javon Wayne, Z’riyah, and Emmanuel Simmons. Out of all the eleven illegitimate kids DMX sired, at least five are girls, while the rest are boys. Unfortunately, the full specifics of Tacoma’s half-siblings are somewhat scanty.
Tacoma Simmons appears to be following in his father’s footsteps on social media, despite not having much information available regarding his professional background. He identified himself as a composer on his Instagram page, but he is also a manager at Guitar Center, according to his Facebook profile.
In dozens of videos he has published, he can be seen playing the guitar and singing along to various powerful songs.
At the time of his death, Earl Simmons’ entire estate was valued at $10 million. It was said that Tacoma was appointed a guardian of his father’s estate and was in charge of splitting the inheritance – alongside his brothers – Xavier and Sean.
There is no doubt that Tacoma himself is an exceptionally talented young musician and songwriter. So far, he has amassed roughly $1.5 million in net worth, which is a substantial sum of money for someone his age. It is unknown at this point whether any of this money was inherited from his late father.
The second son of the late rapper is not very outspoken about his current whereabouts. Tacoma Simmons is also very cautious with giving out information regarding his personal relationships. He listed himself as “single” in his Facebook bio, but that could only be a smart diversion.
Tacoma uses the handle @tacomasimmons to post on Instagram. He has posted just about five times and has around a thousand followers. He tries to avoid drawing attention to himself and has refrained from sharing any of his photos on Instagram.
