During his career, DMX has sold over thirty million albums worldwide to date. He also has starred in, or played supporting roles, in eight films and released his autobiography, entitled, "E.A.R.L.: The Autobiography of DMX" in 2002. In late July 2013, DMX filed for bankruptcy in a Manhattan court. In his filing, DMX claims to have roughly $50,000 in assets and somewhere between $1 million and $10 million worth of debt to various creditors. His debts include $1.24 million in child support. DMX's attorney released a statement that explained his debts have restricted the rapper from obtaining a passport for many years. DMX hopes to be able to restructure his debts so he can begin performing overseas again, where he still has an active fan base.
