DMX has no problem flashing his massive donger in public -- telling journalist his naked streak through a Detroit hotel was his way of showing off his pride ... in his penis.
X was at LAX last night when he explained why in the world he went balls (and more) out -- and it wasn't just a dare.
In case you missed it ... DMX was caught on surveillance footage last week flashing his naughty bits to a hotel employee while his friends watched on. Watch the video...
The 42-year old rapper also spends time roasting our camera guy ... and it's awesome.
