DMX still has it.

If you don't believe it, check out this new freestyle.

The 48-year-old has been grinding since getting out of prison earlier this year for tax issues, doing old school Hip Hop shows and recording tracks with his favorite producer and good buddy Swizz Beatz.

The hard work has paid off, as X has just signed a new deal with Def Jam, the label that made him famous.

X was Def Jam's best selling artist when he dropped five albums for them between 1998 and 2003.

Here's Swizz Beatz announcing X is back on Def Jam after many years away.
