DMX Arrested Again! Rapper Fails to Pay Child Support

DMX just can't get it together! MStars News has learned that the rapper was arrested once again for failing to pay child support.

According to TMZ, DMX was busted for a contempt of court warrant earlier this week in Yonkers, New York. His warrant stems back from July when he allegedly didn't pay child support to his ex-wife, Tashera Simmons. The rapper and his ex have four children together.

DMX appeared in court on Tuesday, and he asked the judge working his case to let him out of jail so that he could go make money to pay his back child support with scheduled appearances. The judge seemed to believe that DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons, really was telling the truth about his upcoming gigs and released him without bail. But if you think X is out of the woods, think again, he has to be back in court in November to get his child support issues with Tashera solved.

MStars News previously reported that DMX spent only two months behind bars at the Erie County Holding Center in Buffalo, New York for failure to pay child support to another woman that he has a child with. X was released from that stint in jail back in September.

X was supposed to serve six months for that child support situation but only served two months. At that time, he was arrested in New York City right before he was scheduled to perform at Radio City Music Hall. X owed over $400,000 in child support, but he claimed he was unaware that he was supposed to be paying support for that child.

When the rapper was released, he had everyone questioning if he was working at iHop to make some money after he was photographed making omelets. TMX cleared that up claiming that the rapper was at the restaurant to have a meeting with his manager and after the meal wanted to meet and thank the kitchen staff who made his meal, which ending up in him having fun cooking.

Hopefully the rapper makes his money and takes care of this child support drama.
