''The Great Depression'' is the fourth solo album released by New York based rapper DMX. Released October 23, 2001, it was DMX's fourth straight album to debut at number one. The album demonstrated his still strong allegiance with the Ruff Ryders. The Great Depression went platinum quickly, but lacked the staying power of his previous releases. The Album contains the Singles "Who We Be", "We Right Here", and "I Miss You."
This album sold 439,000 copies in its opening week and became DMX's fourth to debut at #1. Despite debuting at #1 on the billboard 200 and selling close to 3 million worldwide, The Great Depression wasn't met with much critical praise. In fact, the album was credited by critics as the most mediocre in DMX's catalogue.
''The Great Depression'' was released in a "clean" version that lightly censors out violence and blanks out all profanity and drug use. Some of the editing is inconsistent on the names of guns and subject matter of that kind, as it will commonly leave in some gun names but blank out others. One example of this is on "I'ma Bang" where the part, "Get the glock" is normally censored as "Get the g***k" but halfway through the track is left uncensored. - Wikipedia
