Rapper DMX has become embroiled in a legal battle with a woman who claims he fathered a child with her 10 years ago.

The hip-hop star, who has 10 children with several different women, has been sued by Patricia Trejo over allegations he has failed to hand over child support payments for her daughter.

She appeared at Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday as part of the ongoing case, according to TMZ, claiming she is owed more than $1 million in back payments.

The website reports the rapper has questioned the paternity of the girl and has demanded a DNA test to prove he is her father.
