DMX Arrested (Again) On Possession Charges

DMX was arrested in South Carolina on 20 August and despite being drunk and carrying marijuana at the time, the rapper's immediate reaction was to claim he'd been framed. On video footage taken at the scene, DMX can be heard saying "this ain't no normal traffic stop, 18 cops, 5 cars, get the f**k outta here man."

Simmons was released from the police station and taken to Greer County jail. He was released sometime later but is currently under house arrest. It is believed that when DMX appears in court, he will be sentenced to 15 days for possession.

DMX is best known for his prolific rap discography, he has been performing since the late 90s. Some of his most famous tracks include 'X Gon' Give It to Ya' and 'Where the Hood At?' He has also appeared in such films as Romeo Must Die and Last Hour. His career has been plagued with bouts of legal difficulties, including another charge of possessing marijuana in 2000.
