Drama Over DMX, Murder By Death Tours

DMX fans downunder were startled by a series of tweets from the rapper that he was not booked for any shows in May, and that fans should not buy tickets.

“X will not be there…we know nothing about these dates!” said a tweet signed DMX Management.

Australian tour promoter Able Touring insisted the tour is legit, and blamed the tweets on a disgruntled ex-business associate of DMX.

Bloomington, Indiana’s Murder By Death won’t be making it to Australia for its tour that ends in May. Promoter Jung Hearts told the band that its investor had disappeared, and there was no money for the tour.

The band labeled Jung Hearts “unreliable” and “untrustworthy,” saying they could not even salvage the visit themselves, as no flights were booked and no work visas arranged.
