The 'Party Up' rapper was stopped by police on Wednesday after they clocked him driving at 102mph on a busy highway.
Police eventually took DMX - real name Earl Simmons - into custody after discovering that his driving license had been revoked, an Arizona Department of Public Safety official told Reuters.
DMX was released from jail after being charged with driving on a suspended and revoked license, reckless driving and suspicion of criminal speeding.
The musician's attorney hasn't commented on his latest arrest.
In July, DMX was released from an Arizona prison after serving seven months for violating the terms of his parole from a separate conviction by drinking alcohol.
DMX's last solo album Year of the Dog… Again reached the top five of the US charts upon release in 2006.
