A side note from an article on musicians who went batshit nuts with drugs and trouble had this charming list of DMX offenses:
1998: Arrested after a stripper alleged she was raped by DMX. No evidence was found and charges were dropped.
1999: Arrested during the Hard Knock Life tour for an alleged stabbing. Charges were dropped.
2004: Arrested after attempting to steal a car outside JFK airport in NYC. DMX claimed to be an FBI agent and demanded the car for top-secret FBI ‘business’. Seriously. He used fake sirens to pull the vehicle over and sped off after the owner refused to hand it over. Parking lot attendants denied DMX’s request to open the gate, prompting him to drive through it. Police reported he was under the influence of valium.
2004: Just weeks after the FBI incident, DMX was arrested for speeding and driving with a suspended license.
2005: Arrested for crashing his SUV into a woman’s vehicle, which was subsequently pushed into a police car.
2006: Arrested on a flight from NY to London for refusing to wear his seatbelt and becoming abrasive when told he must.
2008: Barricaded inside his bedroom in attempt to deter a raid, DMX came out of his pillow fort when the SWAT team showed up. Police found guns, drug paraphernalia, multiple cars with incorrect or mismatching license plates, and sixteen pit bulls. Three of the sixteen were dead, and one of three had been lit on fire.
2008: Mild in comparison, DMX was arrested for failure to appear in court and driving with a suspended license.
2008: Arrested after giving a false name during a hospital stay and shirking a $7500 hospital bill.
2009: DMX showed up an hour and a half late to his own performance at a charity concert and threw a fit when security refused to let him perform. Here’s a video of him and his crew fighting with the guards.
