American rapper DMX who passed away on April 9, after being on life support following a drug overdose, will be honoured by his family, friends, and fans in one of the premier entertainment venues in the country - the Barclays Center, on April 24, Saturday. The late rapper`s former manager, Steve Rifkind, told TMZ that the event`s final logistics are still being figured out, including how many people will be allowed inside and how ticketing will work. Limited capacity will be in effect because of COVID-19.

DMX`s family and close friends will then attend the private funeral service at a church in the New York City area on Sunday, April 25. TMZ broke the story, that Yonker`s mayor, Mike Spano, welcomed the idea of the family using Yonkers Raceway for the service as a tribute to the star, who grew up in the city. However, the plans for DMX to be remembered there, by constructing a statue or honouring him with a street name are still on hold.
