AllHipHop.com reports, representatives from the troubled rapper from Yonkers New York say reports of DMX sneaking drugs into prison were exaggerated. Most of the reported infractions took place months ago and one as far back as January.

The cause for the information leaked the web recently was the rapper was transferred from one jail, to another, where prison officials reached guilty verdicts on several minor infractions.

A rep for the rapper stated “DMX never snuck anything into the prison, as far as him smoking in jail, there is an area where inmates are allowed to smoke. A guard felt that DMX was smoking outside of a designated lined area in the smoking court and started harassing him, which resulted in the charge.”

“DMX is looking forward to being released from prison and resuming his career,” DMX’s rep told AllHipHop.com. “We are in the early process of helping ex-rebuild his career in staying on the right track this time.”

The representitive also stated that the rapper has several shows planned shortly after he is released from prison.

Barret Marson, Arizona Department of Correction spokesman confirmed DMX’s release date next week.
