DMX is the best.

The troubled rapper has been arrested so many frickin' times, it's becoming familiar and amusing to him - as well as to The Hollywood Gossip.

When you can't even recall what the man is being charged with because all his arrests blend together after awhile, that's a long ass rap sheet.

But we think this is the deal:

DMX was extradited from Florida yesterday - where he finally pleaded guilty to drug charges - so he could return to his home state of Arizona.

There, he's facing more drug charges and another warrant for his arrest. Yes, we're serious. Anyway, enjoy possibly the best DMX mug shot yet ...

Even DMX is amused by DMX's legal brushes at this point.
