Lil Nas X has broken his silence following his recent arrest and subsequent hospitalization last Thursday.
“Your girl is gonna be okay, y’all,” he said in an Instagram Story post. “Okay? She’s gonna be alright. S–t.”
“That was f–king terrifying. That was terrifying. That was a terrifying last four days. But your girl is gonna be alright.”
The rapper was taken into custody early Friday morning, just after 6 a.m., after he was seen appearing disoriented as he spoke incoherently to someone filming him. The singer also appeared to be fully naked, at one point, after ditching his boots and underwear worn in the initial footage.

The footage also showed him looking noticeably bedraggled, and in one moment, he was even spotted balancing an orange traffic cone on his head.
Lil Nas X was charged with four felonies… three counts of battery against a police officer and one count of resisting an executive officer.
It gets to a point… this is so disheartening. The fact that ppl saw Lil Nas X high as a kite in the middle of LA in his underwear & tried to make tiktok videos with him instead of calling for help…pic.twitter.com/OvPQOIGPU0

He has pleaded not guilty to all four charges and was released on a $75,000 bail. A judge ordered him to attend Narcotics Anonymous meetings upon his release.
