DMX/Police Confrontation Sparks Riot at Concert

So apparently all hell broke loose backstage at what was supposed to be a DMX concert in Colorado Springs. He was supposed to go on at 9:30pm and showed up at 11:00pm only to find that the show was cancelled….hmm. First off, anytime X shows up at booking, on the same day as the booking….consider that a success and get him on stage. But instead, the security at the venue got into a confrontation, that reportedly turned physical. HipHopWired says: “X then tried to enter the stage but was accosted by authorities who jumped him to the ground as his fans and entourage joined the melee and the fight ensued. DMX still made it to the stage minus a sound system to let them know he was indeed in the building.”

And someone named MaCaAtic caught everything on camera…and is milking it for all its worth by posting the dust-up in 2 parts, with a musical intro, a panel discussion, and running commentary, lol…but, I can’t be mad, the footage is dramatic.



It gets hectic around the 1:40 mark…and I like how DMX first stays calm. Then he makes sure his girl and perhaps a child are safely removed. Then he goes around the barricade to get to the stage. Now aside from the fact that the security seems entirely in the wrong, HipHopWired also alleged that the show was only cancelled because the promoter didn’t have X’s 2nd half payment? Tsk tsk.

The first video clip from MacaAtic after the jump…which shows more of the initial argument…


Here’s the initial argument between DMX and security…
