Rapper DMX sat down with talk show host Dr. Phil to discuss some of the most recent scandals in his life.

In a preview of the episode, Dr. Phil asks DMX — whose real name is Earl Simmons — about some of his outlandish and controversial moments of late, including his recent naked spree through a Detroit hotel.

In addition, DMX filed for bankruptcy over a month ago and the talk show host confronts the rapper about his financial situation and rumors of failing to make child support payments.

This is the second heart-to-heart interview featuring the rapper and an Oprah Winfrey protege, who sat down with OWN’s Iyanla Vanzant as she offered him support on her show, Fix My Life.

Vanzant attempted to provide guidance for the embattled artist, who has a history of drug abuse, domestic violence and over 30 arrests.

DMX later said Vanzant portrayed him in a negative light following the airing of the episode.

“Iyanla set the whole thing up to make me look bad for ratings,” he reportedly said. “That lady is toxic … My last words to her were that she can suck my d**k and she still can.”

Perhaps DMX feels he can redeem his reputation by re-evaluating many of the issues that have plagued his career with the help of Dr. Phil.

Watch the preview of the episode above and tell us what you think below.

The full interview is scheduled to air on Wednesday, Sept. 25th.
