DMX Blasts Wife For Being A High Roller, Not Caring About His Credit Score

Every famous rapper has his or her own specific vibe, but as a group, there are certain issues they tend to be more invested in. Violence, social injustice, poverty, sex and street credibility are all very much in the rap game wheelhouse. Credit score, however, is not, which is what makes this story a true original.

“What’s My Name?” rapper DMX is about to get foreclosed on. More specifically, a luxury house he owns in Mt. Kisco, New York is about to get foreclosed on. The musician himself hasn’t lived there since 2005. Instead, it’s been inhabited by his estranged wife Tashera, and she allegedly stopped making mortage payments in 2008. So, now, the house is about to be sold to the highest bidder, and according to TMZ, DMX is irate about what it’s going to do to his credit score.

"I told her she is living above her means, that you can't still live on the same block as Martha Stewart and Chevy Chase, you gotta downgrade, but she refuses to do so because the house is in my name. She doesn't give a fuck about my credit."

Say what you will about DMX, but the man is a character. He’s been arrested on numerous occasions. He’s belted out Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer for the seasonal enjoyment of all, and now, he’s trying to figure out a way to fight George Zimmerman. He always shoots from the hip and never, ever disappoints.

For a reminder of why we all fell in love with DMX’s gruff vocals and aggressive opinions back in the day, I highly encourage you to take a listen to the “Ruff Ryders’s Anthem” below…
