Previously in an interview for Complex, American rapper, singer, songwriter, and internet personality Lil Nas X reported that “People should know that 2021 is going to be one hell of a year for me” and he was not lying! After several teasers, he finally drops “Montero (Call Me by Your Name),” and it comes with a sci-fi queer music video.
Lil Nas X also shared a statement on his Instagram about this video which he addressed to himself at age 14 :
“Dear 14-year-old Montero, I wrote a song with our name in it. It’s about a guy I met last summer. I know we promised to never come out publicly, I know we promised to never be “that” type of gay person, I know we promised to die with the secret, but this will open doors for many other queer people to simply exist. You see this is very scary for me, people will be angry, they will say I’m pushing an agenda. But the truth is, I am. The agenda to make people stay the fuck out of other people’s lives and stop dictating who they should be. Sending you love from the future.”
While waiting for an upcoming and highly anticipated first record, Lil Nas X song “Old Town Road” featuring Miley Cyrus’ dad Billy Ray became the longest-running number-one song since the chart debuted in 1958 in the United States. It seems that 2021 can only be fully for him!
