DMX gets early release

By | Published on Friday 13 August 2010

Rap man DMX has been released from prison after serving just eighteen days of a 90 day sentence.

As previously reported, the rapper was released from prison at the beginning of last month after serving four months for parole violation after failing a drugs test. But almost immediately a 2002 driving conviction caught up with him, and he had to hand himself back into the authorities.

The charge was driving while intoxicated, but was reduced to reckless driving as part of a plea bargain in which the rapper agreed to serve another 90 days in jail. But, by handing himself in and complying with the authorities, he has been let out just eighteen days in.

DMX is apparently now working on a new album.
