Iconic ‘90s DJ Speaks Out On Arrest After Man OD's In His Apartment

Iconic '90s figure, DJ Keoki (real name George Lopez), has spoken out after he was arrested in an apartment where another man reportedly died from a drug overdose.

According to LA Weekly, Lopez was arrested in a New York apartment allegedly filled with drugs where NBC TV producer Thomas Felty was found dead.

Taking to Facebook last week, the dance music legend confirmed he will be entering a rehab centre and will be not be performing any future shows "indefinitely".

"The thing with meth my drug of choice is it's like a bag of potato chips," Lopez wrote.

"…You have one Potato chip and you like it so you go for more and more and before you know it you care only about more. You eat the whole bag and you need more. If you've never ever done it please for the life of any God do not do it. I don't regret anything in my life but I do wish I would've made different choices on somethings like drugs."

The post continues, "My family has offered me an opportunity to go to a rehab center that's good I'm going to go and I'm gonna come back a different person. I'm going to morph finally from the caterpillar to a butterfly please continue to pray for me and my family thank you…"

Lopez found global fame with his song, Caterpillar, which was used in a 1996 episode of The Simpsons, while he had a string of successful albums, including Disco Death Race 2000 and Ego Trip.

He also was member of the New York party crew, the 'Club Kids' led by Michael Alig, who was found guilty of manslaughter in 1997 and served nearly 17 years in prison. 

The controversial story of the 'Club Kids' was depicted in the 2003 factually based biographical drama film Party Monster which starred Macaulay Culkin, Seth Green, Chloe Sevigny, Wilmer Valderrama (as Lopez) and Marilyn Manson.

Alig claimed on his own Facebook account last week that Lopez is out of prison and has a hearing "coming up in a month or so".
