    DMX was arrested for the sixth time this year as he attempted to go shopping on Thursday afternoon in Miami.

    The arrest was the result of a skipped court date Tuesday, the result of drug charges in Arizona.

    Police in Miami, Florida arrested and handcuffed the Yonkers-bred artist as he attempted to leave an area Wal-Mart.

    DMX was reportedly trying to surrender to police through negotiations with his lawyer. The Miami police apprehended him before those talks could come to fruition.


    The 37-year-old chart-topping rapper was to appear in Arizona for a pretrial conference for allegations of marijuana and drug paraphernalia possession.

    DMX, born Earl Simmons, faces a number of charges in Phoenix, Arizona, ranging from animal cruelty charges to taking on the personality of another person.

    DMX needs his wife, bad.  She need to let X do her like that girl in Belly.  That will keep him out of trouble.

    I don't see shit funny about a troubled black man steady goin in and out of jail. This shit is just plain ole sad to me....I watch some of his video clips sometimes when he used to pray on-stage, he was so real and it saddens me that he has so much talent and it's just goin to waste....I miss DMX and I sincerely hope he snaps outta this soon because he is someone's father and I'm sure his children look up to him. Why do black people like to kick each other when we're down? Instead of laughin you all should be praying for this brother coz he obviously needs it.........

    DMX you slippin dog, get it together......

    I had the good fortune to see DMX live last year at a club here in Miami. Because of my relationship with the club's owner, we actually got a chance to interact with DMX's people before he actually arrived (he was more than three hours late, and didn't actually begin his set until well after 3 am).
    I've got to say, unfortunately, that DMX's inner circle is a mob of yes men and enablers, none of whom appear to have the courage, nor the authority and/or respect to tell him his shit stinks. I recall even telling the tour DJ that X's last weed plate needed to come strong so that X could get back on top. The dude replied- oblivious to any semblance of reality- that they were "already on top".
    I'm a big fan of yours, Earl. We all go through our little thing in life, and we don't get over it until it's time. I'ma pray for you, dog, and I'll be here, waiting to bump your shit, when you make it through to the other side.

    Right now this dude needs to be sentenced to go to a drug rehab center. No matter how many interventions or any other types of help people try to provide dude isn't going to get it. The only way he's going to change is when he's forced to sit down and get the treatment he needs. If Lawrence Taylor got clean there's still hope for X, but he needs to get help before it's too late.

    Who remember that show he had on BET?

    X was walking around strapped, shooting guns, driving wreckless and wilding out in AZ. He had been doing that shit for years until that show. He let BET put him on blast an they been fucking with him every since in AZ. That show made it seem like AZ was the wild wild west or some shit where anything goes. AZ didnt want that image so they put a stop to that shit quick.

    If you go back and look @ the movie BACKSTAGE, dude had issues even back then when he was praying on stage & started crying. Truth is fame is & money is not all its cracked up to be and some cant handle the pressures and resort to drugs for answers....

    From a distance, it seems like his family and the people that surround him are only around him for the money cuz they would have been gotten him help by now if they truly loved him!  I hope he make it through!

    Cosign 100%.  Situations like this tell you everything you need to know about the people you surround yourself with.  I mean 4real, where's Swizzy, Eve, Drag-On, Dee, LOX, Jay.....somebody?  This dude is in dire need of tough luv intervention.  I saw him on a Smack DVD and he was acting like he was "geeked-up" on that shit then.  He's slowly becoming the hip hop version of Amy Winehouse.  What a waste of talent. smh.
