Lil Nas X is a 23-year-old award-winning rapper, singer, songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia. Dubbed "an internationally recognized phenomenon" by Billboard, he rose to fame in 2019 when he released "
Old Town Road" and simultaneously upended the music industry - shattering genre norms, disrupting the charts and going viral worldwide. The song's remix with
Billy Ray Cyrus became the longest running #1 single in Billboard Hot 100 history after 19 weeks atop the chart. The 16x Platinum hit is the most certified song in RIAA history and is recognized with numerous awards including two Grammys.
After releasing his eclectic EP 7 in June 2019, which features the 6x Platinum "
Panini" and 2x Platinum "Rodeo,"
Lil Nas X returned in November 2020 with his Platinum single "HOLIDAY", and followed with the culture-shifting 3x Platinum hit "MONTERO (Call Me Be Your Name)" in March 2021.
The queer anthem provoked much needed dialogue around the globe, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, remained atop of the Spotify Global chart for over a month straight, and propelled to #1 on the Top 40 and Rhythm Airplay charts. Already named a fashion icon for all his incredible eye-catching looks, the multifaceted artist and internet king released his critically-acclaimed and GRAMMY-nominated debut album Montero in
September 2021.
The album was included on numerous Best of 2021 lists from Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, People, USA Today, Billboard, LA Times, Complex, and more for "its genre-stretching approach and refreshingly honest exploration of love and loneliness" as told by Variety. The certified Platinum album, which Billboard calls a "masterpiece," also boasts the 4x Platinum hit song "
Industry Baby" featuring Jack Harlow, which went on to reach #1 at Top 40 radio and #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album's third Platinum single "That's What I Want" recently became Nas' third straight #1 song at Top 40 radio.
Lil Nas X is currently in the studio working on his sophomore album.
