Lil Nas X, the Grammy-winning rapper, has been given a second chance to turn his life around after a tumultuous 2023. Following an arrest in Los Angeles last year, the singer-songwriter now has the opportunity to participate in a mental health diversion program, aimed at addressing underlying issues that may have contributed to his alleged altercation with police officers.
