As many times as rapper DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons, has been in court, he has never used profanity when addressing the judge and eventually accepted his punishment without a rebuttal.
Unfortunately, there is a first time for everything as the rapper used the F-word when addressing the judge during an extradition hearing in a Miami-Dade County courtroom after learning he would spend another month in jail.
According to reports, Simmons said, "I ain't going back to no f---ing jail." The judge then responded, "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 in court after his arrest at a Wal-Mart on 163rd Street earlier this month after failing to appear at a court hearing in Arizona.
