DMX is planning to release a new album after jail and he wants to get back into the acting game. He's also trying to make a possible biopic of his life.
This isn't the first time the hip-hop artist has had run-ins with the law. He was previously arrested in 2015 for a robbery and for failing to pay child support. He was arrested before that in 2013 for driving under the influence and without a license.
