Rapper DMX Curses In Court

POSTED: Tuesday, August 26, 2008

MIAMI -- Rapper DMX dropped the F-bomb during an extradition hearing in a Miami-Dade County courtroom Tuesday morning after learning he would spend another month in jail.

"I ain't going back to no f---ing jail," said DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons.

"Oh, well that just ingratiated you to me," said Judge Lawrence Schwartz. "I've never heard the F-word before, so it's OK."

The judge then warned Simmons' lawyer that the rapper had better not curse in his courtroom again.

Simmons was arrested at a Wal-Mart on 163rd Street earlier this month after failing to appear at a court hearing in Arizona. He was also arrested in June for not having a valid driver's license.
