He’s a celebrity, so I doubt he’ll get jail time (even non-celebs don’t really get jail time in L.A. after being convicted of felonies—come visit, it’s great here!), and this will all make for fun material on his next album, of course. Via ABC7 above, and this report from Deadline:

Lil Nas X, who was arrested last week after he was spotted wandering naked on Ventura Blvd. in Studio City, was charged Monday with four felony counts. The Grammy-winning rapper, whose real name is Montero Hill, is facing three felony counts of battery with injury against a police officer and a single count of resisting an executive officer (a cop), according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.

Nas has been in jail since his arrest while nearly naked and high on drugs last week, which is crazy considering how everyone in L.A. gets out on bail right away (even butt sniffers), but he’s being arraigned this afternoon, so he’ll likely be free tonight.
