DMX is a well known rapper whose real name is Earl Simmons. In the early hours of Wednesday morning, he was charged with driving without a license in South Carolina. It’s not the first time he’s been arrested recently. DMX was supposed to be changing his ways as he declared last year that he had devoted his life to Jesus and become a Church leader.
The 42 year old rapper, was arrested when police saw him driving out of Greer, Northwestern South Carolina, at about 1a. m, reported the Associated Press. He was taken to jail, for five hours, but claimed he could have paid the fine, there and then.
The rapper went before the judge at 6am on Wednesday morning (13Feb13) and was released after paying a fine. DMX is also known for The “Party Up (UP in Here)” hit and is used to being in and out of jail. However, last year he made a public declaration that he’d changed his ways and become a Church deacon.
