DMX Arrested, Music Slippin’ While Dark Man X Charged with DUI in S.C, No License and Driving Drunk [UPDATE]

Former rap superstar, DMX, has been arrested, yet again. With Dark Man X’s music slippin’, is the star spiraling out of control? Today he was charged with DUI in Greenville, S.C. and was also driving drunk without a license.

When news first broke of the arrests, DMX’s publicist denied the incident. In fact, he claimed that the rapper was pulled over because he wasn’t wearing a seat belt. His publicist also issued a statement to the press claiming:

“Allegations about DMX being arrested for drunk driving are false. He was arrested early this morning but quickly released. X was given a breathalyzer test and easily passed it."

But, the SC Highway Patrol refuted that claim and confirmed that Mr. X was arrested for driving while inebriated.

USA Today spoke with an officer who witnessed the event:

“The rapper was seen driving "erratically" Thursday night at about 11:30 p.m. when he was pulled over on suspicion of driving under the influence, according to Sgt. Bob Beres of the South Carolina Highway Patrol's media relations department.”

“After failing a field sobriety test, he was transported to the Greenville Detention Center and charged with driving under the influence not having a driver's license and not wearing a seat belt, Beres says.”

Be careful South Carolina, X is gonna’ give it to ya’.
