Lil Nas X gave us the most meme-worthy songs of the year with his chart-topping surprise hit “Old Town Road”, and new remixes are constantly coming our way. The latest sees the young rapper and his collaborators embracing the latest internet craze and storming Area 51.
The animated video shows Lil Nas X joining forces with Billy Ray Cyrus, Young Thug, and Mason Ramsey, and it’s the most hilarious thing you’ll see all day. It’s a nod to the latest viral meme, inspired by a Facebook event titled “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop All of Us” which received more than a million RSVPs in record time.
Area 51 memes have only been trending for a couple of days, but that didn’t stop Lil Nas X from making an entire video inspired by this strange phenomenon.
The hilarious video sees him searching for aliens with his buddies at a secretive military base and it even features a cameo from Keanu Reeves doing a Naruto run.
Lil Nas X owes his fame to internet memes, so it’s fitting to see him paying homage to the latest internet craze with this remix. “Old Town Road” still rages on the top of Billboard 100 chart for the 15th week in a row, and this video will help it stay there.
