Regardless of his continuing legal issues, and having released only one album in the last seven years, DMX is still finding high-profile work.
AllHipHop reports that Dark Man X will be featured in a comedic jail scene in a new, currently untitled Chris Rock Movie.
X’s camp release an official statement, writing, “The scene is comedic which allowed X to show off his versatility as an actor. X and Rock played well off each other and Rock’s character even gets DMX to lead the inmates in a song. There are more acting roles to come and DMX is also planning on attending the Sundance Film Festival in January.”
Below is a photo from the film set:
DMX has starred in several feature films, including 1998’s Belly, 2000’s Romeo Must Die, 2001’s Exit Wounds, and 2003’s Cradle 2 the Grave.
