DMX was arrested in New York Friday (June 26) shortly before he was slated to perform at Radio City Music Hall, according to the Associated Press.
A New York City Sheriff’s Department spokesman said the rapper was apprehended regarding several outstanding matters, including a robbery complaint in Newark, New Jersey; $400,000 in outstanding child support payments; and bail jumping in White Plains, New York.
Charges have not been filed in the Newark case.
DMX was slated to perform as part of the Masters Of Ceremony concert. Other artists on the bill were The LOX, Rakim, Ma$e, Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth, Brand Nubian and Das EFX.

child support is robbery
They just wanna see this crackhead 6feet deep ayi !!!
He not six foot more like 5’4″, lol
Damn X ain’t even fit in with the rest of the line up. He shoulda stayed home but he’s so broke he has to do anything for money. No one going to see Das Pete n CL etc is into Dmx. When he came out he was straight commercial garbage. No golden age fans was fuckin wit him
What the fuck are you talking about? dumb slanderous hoe
Damn, he was trying to work for the support
How u know he was gonna use the money for child support? Maybe he was gonna buy a new toaster. Or a tanning bed. Or Sargento cheese. Or a scooter maybe. He could share the cheese with his kids but the scooter might be too dangerous and the toaster they might use but the tanning bed would probably give them cancer. So for all u know, his kids might have only got cheese and a toaster, but cheese will break a toaster if u put it in there, so now his kids will just have a broken toaster with melted cheese in it. Not as good as the money, is it?
Does this ni99a still have any tracks to perform
SOREN BAKER-EPIC FAILURE THE END

Is that 400k for child support good or bad? I mean, the last time I heard he had over a million debt only for that. When he got asked how on the Earth one can pile up that much on a TV show, DMX said it’s easy when the payment has been determined when he were making 13M in a year. Which leads to my 2nd question: has his lawyer pulled some strings to correct this since then?
Boa, why you so obsessed with child support? You got issues with your baby momma or something? Stop posting on this site, no one wants you here nigga.
fuck this washed up hasbeen crackhead. its mad funny i saw a video on youtube where he was in germany they was shootin a rap video for some local loser. that’s how low this man has stooped to. he broke ass hell lol
Everybody wanna kick X when he down SMH this dude needs prayer he has serious problems and he needs serious help. I guess its true U only love ppl when they on top, not when they’re down and out huh?
We all got serious problems, bruh: You, me, everyone. But we still provide support for our children and manage not to be addicted to crack without having a previous fortune to work with. And no offense to you, but if you didn’t already know that people only love you when you’re doing well, then you haven’t experienced real life issues then.
Crack head and all nigga still slap fire out au nigga,iI still got love for x regardless.
Nigga X chew u haters like au cat talkin shit bout au nigga dogs rember that…
