bigted Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 DMX Starts Fight at Concert, Woman Struck with Chair Monday - October 2, 2006 by Jolene "foxxylady" Petipas A 29-year-old woman was hit in the head with a metal folding chair during an altercation between several concert-goers and members of DMX's entourage at Hot 97's Back to School Jam on Saturday (September 30). According to The New York Newsday, DMX, who was a headliner at the event which also featured appearances by Lloyd Banks, Yung Joc, and Jim Jones, sparked the melee after the sound was turned off midway through his performance. "DMX ran back, jumped off stage and started a fight with the sound person," Det. Sgt. Herb Daub of Nassau's Third Squad told Newsday. According to police, DMX and his entourage left the stage but returned soon after and began throwing bottles of water at the audience. "A member of the audience picked up a steel folding chair and threw it on stage," explained Daub. "It was thrown back off by a member of DMX's entourage and it struck the victim in the head." The unidentified victim was taken to Nassau University Medical Center in East Meadow and treated for her injuries. Authorities said the man who allegedly threw the chair had dreadlocks. Third Squad detectives are investigating the matter as an assault and are asking anyone with information about it to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-224-TIPS. DMX could not be reached for comment Sunday. A spokesman for DMX's record label, Sony Urban, was unable to locate the artist's representative.

BamF Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Why does he do this?Is it a desperate cry for attention?He has a great talent so why can't he have a good attitude as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Tiger Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Kind of funny that I was listening to X when I read this... He got mad at the DJ on the Chappelle Show cause he played the record with lyrics on it (in other words, it wasn't the instrumental). He's a talented guy but he needs to check his temper. God Blessa!

DevilsJim89 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Its stuff like this which turns me off to DMX. I love "Lord Give Me A Sign" but then again because of this, it makes it seem like hes a hypocrit. Just like Kanye and his "Jesus Walks" then admitting he looks at porn all the time. If rappers are going to preach about Lord, Jesus and have uplifting songs, then act upon them in your life instead of getting in trouble and what not. If your gonna make a spiritual song thats positive, be positive and live your life like that, if not than your just saying the Lord's name in vain. It's garbage and meaningless.

bigted Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Well 2Pac did the same thing when he'd constantly get arrested and then do songs like "Keep Ya Head Up" but yet people hail him as the greatest ever, wouldn't that be hypocritical too? These rappers are human just like everyone else, that's why I don't really put any of them on a pedestal, I like they're music for what it is and leave it at that, but they ain't really role models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 DMX didn't throw the chair, but of course he's catching the flack 4 it. He's not resonsible for his friend's idiotic actions. I'm not saying it's cool that he jumped off the stage 2 go after the sound man tho'...ha ha. That makes me laugh tho.' I have Def Jam's "Survival of The Fittest" live album where DMX is yelling about turning his mic up and after the sound guy doesn't get it right at 1st, he's like "Don't make me come up there and beat the $#!) outta u, dog." And the waterbottle thing sounds like it waz written outta context. That's what they do at shows, they throw waterbottles out in the crowd. Not 2 injur people...but as a favor. When i saw JJ+FP, they threw waterbottles out in the crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Well DMX needs to be more careful in choosing the people he rolls with, they've seem to be a negative influence on him, DMX does have a good attitude on the most part though, he does a lot of good things but of course if he messes up he'll get more press for that than he will doing something good, some people are quick to say how much they lose respect for somebody when they do something wrong but they might do some wrong things too, they ain't famous so that won't be magnified on them though, that's the way I look at it, as long as DMX makes great music I'll support him, I don't let a couple negative things that I he did make me turn my back on him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesSyde Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 DMX said in his bonus DVD that he is a spiritual believer in God, not a religious believer, so he doesnt really follow the sayings of the bible, which is maybe why he has no guidance in his actions. whatever the case is, it's clear that he hasnt committed his life to living like he has said in some songs but at least hes heading in a good direction.
