DMX

During the mid 1990s through the early 2000s, DMX and K-Solo, who first met as inmates in prison during the course of K-Solo's three year prison stint, disputed over who was the first to write "Spellbound". Despite that K-Solo released his version in 1990, DMX, who released his version in 1994, claimed that he was the first to write "Spellbound" In his 1998 hit single " Get At Me Dog ", DMX told K-Solo to "suck his dick". On Beef II, K-Solo took a lie detector test to unsuccessfully prove that he was the first to write "Spellbound".
