    "X Gon' Give It to Ya" is a 2002 song by American rapper DMX, released as the lead single from the soundtrack Cradle 2 the Grave. The song is also a hidden track on DMX's greatest hits album, The Definition of X: The Pick of the Litter and is a bonus track on European releases of his then-current album Grand Champ (from whose sessions the song is taken). It was written by DMX and produced by co-soundtrack organizer Shatek.[1] It was his most successful international single.

    Commercial performance[edit]

    The song found success on the charts, peaking at number 60 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 30 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and number 13 on the Hot Rap Songs. "X Gon' Give It to Ya" later saw a resurgence in popularity following its inclusion in the 2016 film Deadpool and in its trailers, along with prominent spots in its marketing campaign. Following the movie's release, the song bested its 2003 performance on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart with a peak position of number 23, rose 403 percent in sales with 26,000 downloads, and rose 104 percent in streams to 2.6 million US clicks.[2] As of May 2017, the single has officially been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

    Music video[edit]

    The song's music video, directed by Joseph Kahn, was nominated for Soundtrack Video of the Year at the 2003 Music Video Production Association Awards.[3]
