Lil Nas X knows how to stir the pot better than Bobby Flay. Since emerging on the scene in 2019, Lil Nas X has delivered provocative music videos, committed blasphemy, and called out BET. Despite his controversial approach, his music sells exceptionally well, with about seven of his tracks hitting over a billion streams. Do you realize how insane that is? While Lil Nas X is known for his trolling and feisty side, he also showcases a gentle side, as seen in MONTERO here and there. This gentle side returns in his latest single, “Where Do We Go Now?”
In “Where Do We Go Now?,” Lil Nas X reflects on feeling lost in the world and expresses a deep desire to rediscover his happier times or to find a new sense of self. His words convey a genuine and touching sentiment, creating a heartwarming impact.
For those of y’all that are skeptical about Lil Nas X’s singing skills, today is not the day to tell someone that. In “Where Do We Go Now?,” we get very beautiful vocals out of the MONTERO singer, which pairs perfectly with his emotional lyrical content and the gentle, therapeutic production. I’m really a fan of this s**t.
Lil Nas X will do something to piss you off next week, so appreciate these seven days of liking him.
