Lil Nas X is currently in treatment after his arrest and felony charges last month.
In August, Lil Nas X, real name Montero Hill, was arrested after he was found roaming Ventura Boulevard almost naked. Police transported him to a hospital for a possible overdose before he spent the weekend in jail before pleading not guilty to four felony charges.
The rapper was charged with battery and resisting a law enforcement officer.
Following a court appearance at the Los Angeles County Superior Court this week, attorney Drew Findling spoke to reporters outside the courthouse. “Obviously, you heard the treatment word,” Findling said.
“We’re doing what is best for Montero from a personal standpoint and a professional standpoint, but most importantly for his well-being,” he continued in a video captured by Rolling Stone’s Nancy Dillon. “He is surrounded by an amazing family, an amazing team of people that care about him and love him. We’re just addressing those issues. It’s really as simple as that. He’s had a great life, he’ll continue to have a great life. This is a bump that he’s gonna get over. And on behalf of him, his family is making sure he addresses all those issues right now.”
The judge ruled that the rapper can remain out of state as long as he continues with his treatment.
