Ruff Ryders leader DMX has paws pointing at him. The hip-hop veteran is reportedly making headlines for abandoning his dog at an animal hospital.
According to reports, Dark Man X boarded his pit bull at a New York area Four Paws Pet Resort in August and stopped making payments in October.
The one-year-old pit bull named “X” has now been at the boarding facility for almost six months. DMX boarded the dog before he went on tour this summer but hasn’t returned to pick up his pet. “I was able to get him on the phone and I asked him very specifically if he would he like us to assist him and adopt out his dog,” explained Chad Callahan, the owner of Four Paws Pets. “He said yes. So, I asked him to send us a letter relinquishing ownership of the dog and we’d be happy to help. He agreed but then a month went by and we didn’t hear from him again.” DMX has yet to officially sign the dog over to Callahan so for now, “X” is stuck with nowhere to go. (ABC 6)
The news comes on the heels of X releasing his new “Bane Is Back” comeback single.
As expected, DMX links up with his long time friend and collaborator Swizz Beatz for his latest single. Both the sirens in the production and the energy in DMX’s voice make it clear that he’s determined to grab everyone’s attention once again. Could this mean that we might finally receive a new album from DMX this year? It’s too early to tell, but one can hope. (Pigeons & Planes)

Over the past few days, X and producer Swizz Beatz had hinted at new music coming.
In early December, Swizzy showed off some footage of X back in his music-making mode.
