Do You Have a Good DMX Story?

David Arquette co-starred with DMX in the 2004 Donald Goines adaptation Never Die Alone. I asked Arquette if he had a good DMX story.

Arquette: I have a DMX story that stuck with me my whole life. He loved these remote control race cars. I got him this remote control tank that shot little plastic beebees. It didn’t shoot them hard but they shot them. I gave it to him. He starts shooting his wife. I go don’t shoot her. He turns to me and says, ‘Don’t ever tell me how to treat my wife.’ Then he was cool. He was like, ‘Do you want to come to dinner with us?’ It was like 2 in the middle of the night. We get in this hot rod and we were in downtown LA and we start driving. It was him and his wife in the front seat and I’m in the middle of the back seat. He’s not driving on the right side of the road and he’s not driving on the left side of the road. He’s driving right down the middle where the turning lanes are. There was no one in the street, but it didn’t make sense why he was driving in the middle of the road. I didn’t want to say anything. He pulls over to the right and goes up on the sidewalk in between parking meters and the wall up on the handicap thing and he’s driving on the sidewalk. I don’t know what to say. He just stops and parks his car in front of this pool hall that’s closed. He bangs on the door and bangs on the door and gives this guy some money and he opens it in the middle of the night and him and all his buddies are playing pool. Then this fight breaks out – a full fight- and we all have to run and get into his car and we’re all late getting back to the set. I just got back to my trailer and my mind was blown.
