Rapper DMX is heading back to jail just weeks after serving a four-month stint behind bars for a probation violation.
This is the DMX I remember.... |
The gravel-voiced hip-hop star is planning to surrender to authorities and begin serving time in Los Angeles in connection to a reckless driving conviction eight years ago.
TMZ.com reports DMX was placed on probation after he pleaded no contest to the crime, which he has since violated and has been ordered to serve 90 days behind bars.
The rapper's manager insists her client, real name Earl Simmons, is "focused" on taking care of all of his past legal issues so he can move on with his life.
Tragic...indeed. |
Tashera Simmons, who wed the rapper in 1999, has stood by her husband throughout his legal troubles, but has decided enough is enough, according to Allhiphop.com.
Tashera is said to have confirmed the separation to the website and announced plans for a new reality TV series, which will show her rebuilding her life with the couple's four children following the split. Now I don't know who will be picking the series up. Yet something just gives a feeling that VH1 might have something in the works. Who knows if DMX can rise up from this, but his fans certainly hope so.
