A Los Angeles judge set bail at $75,000 and said the "Old Town Road" singer must attend Narcotics Anonymous meetings. Police said they believed Lil Nas X was using drugs at the time of the incident.
His attorney, Christy O'Connor, however, said the singer was not taking illegal drugs and that the episode was an aberration in his life.
The musician was charged with three counts of battery of a police officer and one count of resisting an officer.
Lil Nas X, whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill, was the first openly gay man to receive a Country Music Association Award for "Old Town Road." He also earned two Grammys for the song.
