DMX had been arrested in Miami on August 14 on a felony-fugitive warrant for missing the Arizona court date, causing some confusion over whether he should face his Florida drug charges (stemming from his June arrest for attempted purchase of cocaine and marijuana) before going back to Arizona. In the end, despite the F-bomb he dropped in court, he reached a deal for time served and a $483 fine in Florida, and Arizona officials were given 15 days to extradite the rapper.
