Background Information
The posthumously released DMX album, Exodus was initially released on May 28 in digital only format. The album featured a collaboration between DMX and Bono, titled “Skyscrapers.” That song was available in both explicit and clean versions due to profanity on the song lyrics delivered by DMX. The album was finally released in a physical format on August 27, 2021 when it was issued on CD. More information about the collaboration and how it came about are available in the main album entry.
On the day that the physical CD of DMX’s Exodus was released, a special collection of Acapella versions and instrumental versions of many of the songs from the album were released digitally to help promote the album. Two versions were released of these tracks were released, a full explicit version, and also an edited clean version. “Skyscrapers” is available here in an instrumental version (sans Bono vocals) as well as in both an explicit and edited clean version. The album was made available at a variety of qualities, from compressed audio, CD quality audio as well high resolution audio.
At this time these tracks have been released in digital formats only. It is not known at this time if any will be available in a physical format at a later date.
