Report: Rapper DMX Arrested in Greer
The rapper was charged with driving without a license.
The rapper DMX, who now calls the Upstate home, was arrested early Wednesday for driving without a license, Fox Carolina reported.
The rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, was arrested after stopping at a gas station in Greer.
Spartanburg County Sheriff's deputies said Simmons had been issued tickets in Greer and Duncan, accused of driving without a license, and a state DMV search showed he only had a state-issued identification card on him.

Simmons was booked around 2 a.m. and released a few hours later after paying a fine.
