His ex-girlfriend, Patricia Trejo, made the claim at the LA Superior Court in response to DMX asking the court for permission to perform in Europe.
Trejo asserts that DMX owes her $1m in child support for their 10-year-old daughter, a claim which could lead to the rapper being prevented from travelling abroad.
The rapper told TMZ that he has yet to pay the child support because he does not believe that the child is his. He wants to take a paternity test to prove whether or not he is the father before he makes payments.
DMX, whose real name is Earl Simmons, has dealt with legal complications before. Last year he was released from prison after serving seven months for a probation violation.
DMX rose to fame in the late '90s with hits like 'Ruff Ryders' Anthem' and 'Get At Me Dog'.
