The rapper DMX was arrested on Friday for failure to pay child support – just as he was about to perform at Radio City Music Hall.
A spokesman for the New York City sheriff’s department told WPIX-TV the 44-year-old rapper was taken into custody for several “issues outstanding”.
He said those issues included $400,000 worth of unpaid child support, a warrant issued by the city of White Plains for bail jumping and a robbery complaint out of Newark, New Jersey. No charges have been filed in the Newark case.
The rapper’s real name is Earl Simmons. He had been scheduled to perform at the Master of Ceremony concert at Radio City.
A management company that has represented DMX did not immediately return an email seeking comment.

and thats what crazy.. i read a while back he was trying to tour overseas, but you cant travel abroad if you owe back chsp..
he could tour a couple months and easily have enough to erase that debt, but government aint having that.. its all a trap
