DMX has checked himself into rehab and canceled an upcoming show.
A message on his Instagram reads: “In his ongoing commitment to putting family and sobriety first, DMX has checked himself into a rehab facility. He apologizes for his canceled shows and thanks his fans for their continued support.”
His management hasn’t revealed where he admitted himself or when he will be out of rehab. He was scheduled to perform at Three 6 Mafia’s reunion concert in Memphis on Saturday, but he didn’t perform there and he cancelled his performance on Day 2 of Rolling Loud in New York today (October 13).
