Hogan Made Wrestling 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2004 http://www.cnn.com/2004/SHOWBIZ/06/25/rapp...d.ap/index.html NEW YORK (AP) -- Rapper and actor DMX was arrested on charges that he and another man tried to steal a car in a parking lot at Kennedy Airport, authorities said. DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons, and Jackie Hudgins were arrested Thursday night after Port Authority police interrupted a dispute between the two and another man whose car they allegedly tried to steal, authorities said. A preliminary investigation indicated that Simmons, 34, may have identified himself as a federal agent, according to Tony Ciavolella, a Port Authority spokesman. No one was hurt and no weapons were recovered, Ciavolella said. Simmons and Hudgins were arrested on charges of attempted robbery, criminal impersonation and criminal mischief, he said. They were in custody and were expected to be taken to central booking in Queens late Thursday. A message left for the company representing Simmons was not immediately returned Thursday night. Simmons is the first artist to have his first five albums debut on the "Billboard" charts at No. 1. The rapper was fined and ordered to make public service announcements for the Humane Society after police found pipes for smoking crack, a pistol and 13 pit bulls at his home in Teaneck, New Jersey, in 1999. Simmons pleaded guilty to animal cruelty, disorderly conduct and possession of drug paraphernalia in that case. DMX has acted in films including "Romeo Must Die," "Exit Wounds" and "Cradle 2 The Grave." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest I Got Banned for Sucking Twice Report post Posted June 26, 2004 You think a male rapper will ever think twice about every artist in his genre continuing to be stereotyped that way if he gets busted on it? But yeah, you wouldn't want to fuck with someone named Earl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Junkyard Willie Report post Posted June 28, 2004 DMX was diagnosed as being bi-polar, along with half the teenagers in america today. Much like ADHD, it's a knee jerk reaction to some extreme, but not neccesarily abnormal behavior. Being overly cynical and lightning to quick to anger aren't really sociopathic when it's required for your survival. Such is the case in Yonkers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wait ... are you saying that the police would let any white guy get away with stealing a car, or just famous white guys? Because I wouldn't mind picking up a new ride each morning to drive to work. Why bother paying gas & whatnot if I can just steal a new car each morning? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest theanswer1824 Report post Posted June 29, 2004 they have a section of the police in miami were they profile JUST rappers. isn't that wrong? i know that there was plenty of rock star debauchary going on in the 70's. but that was a different time then. anyone could smoke pot on the street and cops wouldn't trip. these guys would trash their hotel rooms, have groupies overdosing, and not get busted but let's fast foward to the 2000's. do the have a police divison watching rock stars? do they have a division to round up pop stars and 20 something actors when they fuck up?

My presumption is that the rappers caused enough problems to warrant a task force ... police normally don't assign cops to watch a group that they don't anticipate problems from. The disease precedes the cure. And try telling Andy Dick, Robert Downey, etc. that white guys don't get busted when they break the law. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2004 Very disappointing to hear. DMX is one of my favorite rappers to come out in the last 6 years. He needs to cut out the knuckleheadedness and kick the drug bit. I know he's been trying, but he may need to go to a facility this time. Speaking of Ja Rule cracking on Crackman X, at least he hasn't been taking ecstasy and having relations with a male clothes designer. As you can tell, I hate Ja Rule.
