On Thursday night, DMX checked himself into a rehab facility in Southern California, TMZ reports. Earlier this week, the rapper cancelled his Tuesday Santa Ana show and postponed his Los Angeles and San Diego dates due to an unnamed “medical emergency.” In a statement, his manager Pat Gallo confirmed that DMX would be refraining from touring due to health concerns. “It is important right now that he take some time off to focus on his health so that he can be a better father, friend and entertainer,” Gallo said. “We are eternally grateful for the outpouring of concern and support that has poured in. We ask that you please keep X in your prayers as he embraces your support.”
Multiple sources and fans noted that DMX appeared to struggle through his set during the Ruff Ryders and Friends reunion show in Brooklyn last week. DMX has long battled substance abuse issues, as well as bronchial asthma. In 2016, he was hospitalized after being found unconscious. Early this year, he returned with a new single.
