Lil Nas X has said his mother is a drug addict and because of that, they don't have the closest relationship.

"I never really talk about my mom," LNX said soon after he got famous off of country-rap. "She's an addict so we don't have the closest relationship. Even trying to get her better - things didn't quite work out. But there's still love..."

Things still aren't working out, because LNX's mom was recently filmed begging for food on the street.

LNX has paid for his mom's rehab in the past.  Nevertheless, he is catching some flack for having a mom on the corner when he's a very wealthy recording artist.

Should he be criticized, or are there some people who just can't be saved?
