This probably won't surprise anyone, but DMX was arrested this morning. After going nearly two whole years without a legal issue, the rapper legally known as Earl Simmons, was caught driving without a license in the early hours of the morning. This seems to be pattern for Mr. X who was last arrested for driving recklessly with, you guessed it, a suspended license. I seriously wonder if people were placing bets on this in Vegas.

In one of the most bizarre courtroom defenses ever caught on camera, Moon, a Detroit resident accused of threatening to kill his girlfriend, took the stand to show off his impressive off-the-dome vernacular. Surprised by what he heard, District Judge John Chmura told Moon “that’s good” and actually admitted to being impressed before asking Moon if he will require a court-appointed attorney. Family members of Moon, who also faces charges ranging from destruction of police property to disturbing the peace, claim that he suffers from mental illness. HIt the jump for the outrageous video of what happened in court last week.

KRNDN, formerly Krondon, of Strong Arm Steady lets lose his first solo studio album, Everything's Nothing, for Free99. Despite being the same person, KRNDN's spelling change has also brought forth a change in sound. The mood of this Free LP varies greatly from what we've come to except from KNRND; there's an absence of the West Coast boom-bap sound that SAS has become known for, as the instrumentals tend to be a little more futuristic on this release. Everything's Nothing features production from the likes Cardo, DJ Khalil, 321 and DJ Dahi. Hit the jump for the track list, previews and the download link.
