A crazed fan got his hands around DMX's throat for a split second at a concert in Long Beach last night and it was all caught on video.

X was performing at the Cáfe Sevilla in Long Beach and was just about to start his second song when some dumb ass hopped on stage and attacked the rapper.

Security rushed right in and put the stage intruder in a choke hold — then wrangled him off the stage.

The DJ briefly stopped the music during the melee  but X immediately ordered him to get back to spinnin' … yelling, "We don't stop the music for s**t!"
