DMX, age 50, whose birth name is Earl Simmons, suffered an overdose around 11 p.m. Friday, April 2, which led to a heart attack, according to TMZ.
He is hospitalized in the critical care unit in White Plains, the report said.
Simmons is a Mount Vernon native who grew up in Yonkers.
Simmons lived near the Bedford border on McLain Street in Mount Kisco with his now-estranged wife Tashera Simmons before putting the home into foreclosure in 2016 after filing for bankruptcy.
DMX (which stands for Dark Man X) spent a year behind bars after pleading guilty to tax evasion. He was released in January 2019.
