DMX Talks Speeding Tips And Groupie Tales

Complex: You stay in the news for your on-road antics. What's the fastest you've ever driven?

DMX: 150. It was in L.A.

Complex: What kind of car were you driving?

DMX: Ferrari. I got chased by the police and didn't even know it. My friends told me when they caught up, when we got to the hotel. They were like, “You didn't see the police come behind you?” I'm like, “Nope.”

Complex: Why were you driving so fast?

DMX: Well, they had pulled me over the night before with the Benz. You know, they got like a 20 mph speed limit, and you can't go 20 mph with a fuckin Benz. It was 4 o'clock in the morning, there was no cars out. They did some sneaky shit. They went on the opposite side of the road, like down 4 blocks, and came up behind me and pulled me over. I seen them pull that move this time, so I sped up. I was only doing like 80. But 80 is slow in a fucking Ferrari, you know what I'm saying?

Complex: Hell yeah.

DMX: I seen the car on the corner, he had somebody else pulled over. I'm like, “Oh, he's about to turn around and chase me, too.” I just floored it and didn't look back.

Complex: I'm guessing you got away that time?

DMX: Yeah, I got away. You ain't see me on the news, right? You got to get away before the bird get there. Once the helicopter gets there, you're fucked. Valet was standing there, I was like, “Nah, I got it.” Drove it right into the parking lot, underground parking lot. Get that shit off the street.

Complex: Have you ever been with a groupie?

DMX: Is that a serious question? With as many baby mothers as I got, what do you think? What is a groupie? What do you call a groupie?

Complex: The girls that hang around after a big show or concert.

DMX: Yeah, that's everywhere though. It's notorious, if I go to the mall, you know, it's like'outside, you know? Anywhere.

Complex: Well, where there any memorable ones?

DMX: Yeah, there was one that took a shit and didn't wipe her fucking ass, man. I remember that bitch. She had a big ass, too.

Complex: Wait, she took a shit before or after?

DMX: Yo, peep it. I was tired on tour, so I chose my girls, like, “All right, come with me.” She got in the bed. So, like I'm walking up, I'm just smelling shit! Straight shit! Know what I'm saying? I guess she heard me moving around or something, so she just jumped in the bed. So, I'm there just waiting, just sleeping. I wake up, I'm like, “Yo, the shit smell up the whole fucking room!” I go in the bathroom to take a piss, and see big ass logs of shit. Like four of them big logs of shit. But I noticed there was no toilet tissue in there.

Complex: Interesting. Maybe she…

DMX: Nah, there was shit. Paper's supposed to be the last thing in toilet. Paper goes on top of the shit. So I saw shit and no paper.

Complex: So what'd you do?

DMX: I went back to sleep, I was tired. In the morning, I was like, “So what you gonna do?” See, that's the famous line. “What are you getting ready to do?” Because whatever you're doing, I'm doing something else.
