An initial hearing is set for next month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIn a statement last week, the Los Angeles Police Department said Lil Nas had \u201ccharged at officers and was taken into custody\u201d after they found him wandering nude on Ventura Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley. He was later taken to a hospital to be treated for a \u201cpossible overdose.\u201d A widely circulated video showed Lil Nas walking the streets in only white underwear and white cowboy boots.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAn arraignment hearing for Lil Nas is scheduled for later on Monday. If eventually convicted of battery with injury on a police officer, the star could face up to three years in prison for each count. Reps for the the rapper did not immediately return a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tTMZ first published the video of Nas roaming Los Angeles in the buff. In the video clip, he tells the person filming, \u201cDon\u2019t be late to the party tonight,\u201d while mimicking a series of dance moves. The incident came a day after he cleared his Instagram page, updated his name on the app to \u201cQueen Madeline\u201d and began repopulating it with a series of odd posts of himself in a series of costumes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tMonday\u2019s charges came after Lil Nas sat in jail all weekend. On Friday, a spokersperson for the LAPD told <em>Billboard<\/em> that the artist \u201ccannot be cited out,\u201d and that \u201cit is mandatory that he appears before a judge before he is released.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"Layer_1\" data-name=\"Layer 1\" version=\"1.1\" viewbox=\"0 0 702.8 85.2\"><defs\/><path d=\"M63
