DMX can’t stop getting arrested in South Carolina …
For the third time in four months the rapper – whose real name is Earl Simmons – has been arrested in the Palmetto Upstate. In July it was for driving without a license in Greenville. In August it was for marijuana possession in Greer.
DMX’s latest Palmetto State arrest was for “driving on a suspended license, driving while uninsured, and driving an unlicensed vehicle,” according to the website TMZ
He was busted at the Greenville-Spartanburg International airport by cops who were reportedly familiar with his lengthy rap sheet.
DMX has been previously convicted on numerous drug, weapons and driving charges – as well as animal cruelty and aggravated assault charges. In one infamous incident in 2005, he was arrested for cocaine possession, criminal impersonation, criminal possession of a weapon, criminal mischief, menacing, and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol – all while impersonating a federal agent and attempting to carjack a vehicle.
It’s been a tough year for the multi-platinum artist, who filed for bankruptcy in April prior to his latest string of arrests.
UPDATE: DMX’s representative has issued a statement on his latest arrest.

Dammit DMX, SC is no good for you! Get out while you still can!
Now taking applications for the person that gets to hold the door for him on his way out.
Tough my ass, the m’effer is lucky to still be alive. Charles Darwin had him in mind when he postulated “Survival of the Fittest.” It won’t be long till Darwin’s theory comes to bear in that thug’s life.
What’s missing from this picture?
GUNS!
He had a rock in his shoe and the dope was for his glaucoma or diabetes, he can’t remember which…
I hate to say this, but you just can’t fix stupid.
Doesn’t this guy have enough money he can scrounge up somewhere to pay someone to just drive for him? Maybe that would be a smart investment on his part.
Either that, or stay out of SC. Go be someone else’s problem.
What DMX needs is a little Zevon….http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjVbypiUOHA
