Well I reckon it’s about time we got this video y’all!
Lil Nas X dropped the long-awaited video for his track “Old Town Road”. Besides making a trap-country smash, the 20-year-old also knows how to keep the spotlight on him. “Old Town Road” has had several remixes, but the feature from Billy Ray Cyrus was what really helped it take it to the next level. Earlier this week Billboard announced that the track has managed to stay the no. 1 song on the Hot 100 chart for the sixth consecutive week!
In addition to Billy Ray; Chris Rock, Vince Staples, Diplo, Rico Nasty, Jozzy, Young Kio, and Haha Davis all make cameos. Lil Nas called the video a mini-movie, complete with an extra AF western-esque movie poster and all. The concept of the video follows the song lyrics and takes us from when Lil Nas was just a young buckaroo, then he crawls through this mysterious hole that turns out to be a portal that transports him to 2019. He’s a trap-cowboy riding his horse through the hood and thats when he finds Billy Ray….
