Rapper DMX was arrested Monday on a warrant for not having a valid driver’s license, Miami-Dade police say.
The rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, 37, was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on Monday afternoon. His bond is set at $500.
The gruff-rapping Simmons has been dogged by brushes with the law over the years.
He is awaiting trial on drug and animal cruelty charges in Arizona. Police in May raided his home in Maricopa County, where deputies say they found 12 neglected pitbulls. He has pleaded not guilty in that case.
The popular rapper and actor also pleaded guilty in 2002 on similar animal cruelty and drug charges out of New Jersey.
