According to Los Angeles Sheriff’s Division Inmate records, the 26-year-old “Old Town Road” rapper and two-time Grammy winner are his real name, Montero Lamar Hill – arrested shortly after 6am on Thursday, August 21st.
In a statement to USA Today, Los Angeles Police Department Drake Madison said, “Around 5:50am this morning, officers responded to the 11,000 block of Ventura Boulevard for a naked man walking down the street.”
“On arrival, the suspect was charged with officers and taken into custody,” LAPD alleged. “He was taken to a local hospital due to an overdose and was placed in a battery arrest by a police officer.”
Although LAPD did not identify the man in the initial statement, Madison later confirmed that the incident was linked to the arrest of Lil Nas X. USA Today contacted a representative for Lil Nas X for comments.
Social Media Sensation’s Instagram page is also scrubbed, except for 11 posts. One of the music industry’s most famous LGBTQ+ stars has retreated from the heights of viral stardom in recent years, known for his quirky form of music promotion and signature humor.
In 2018, he broke out with the single “Old Town Road” in the popular country after graduating from college. The track features a buzzy remix with genre patriarch Billy Ray Cyrus, whose collaboration later became the longest-running first song in Billboard Hot 100 history. Two other Hot 100 No. 1 followed. fellow rappers Jack Harlow and The Solo “Montero (Call Me by Your Name) and “Industry Baby.”
The singer released his aptly titled debut album “Montero” in 2021.
He recently released his EP “Days Before Dreamboy” in late March. This precedes the release of their second studio album, Dreamboy, which is scheduled to drop later this year. He also boasts 11 career Grammy nominations.
But earlier this year, the hitmaker faced a health struggle, saying, “That’s what I want.” He posted an Instagram video from his hospital bed in late April, telling his followers that he “lost control on the right side” of his face.
“This is what makes me smile completely,” he said in the video, laughing at his distrust. “I can’t even laugh correctly, mate. Ah, what a god!”
He then joked about his condition on his Instagram story, but assured the fans that he was fine. “Stop being saddened with me!” he wrote. “Ima looks interesting for Lil, but that’s it,” he said, adding a crying emoji.
