Camila Cabello discussed her collaboration with Lil Nas X in an interview with Rolling Stone and praised his commitment to really making “He Knows” work.
“He’s the kind of artist where it’s more than just the song. He really puts thought and care into the performance. He plays with the fans. He cares about the music video and making a statement,” she told Rolling Stone.
“He Knows” was released as the second single from Cabello’s fourth solo studio album C,XOXO, set to be released on June 28 via Geffen and Interscope Records. “I Luv It” featuring Playboi Carti was released as its lead single back in March.

]]>According to HBO’s official logline, Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero captures the creative dynamo and mesmerizing star power of Lil Nas X, by following “the genre-breaking artist as he navigates his meteoric rise to fame, his desire to inspire his fans, and his place in the pantheon of Black queer icons.”
This documentary was filmed over 60 days during his Long Live Montero Tour, and it will be divided into three acts: Rebirth, Transformation, and Becoming. In addition to seeing him tour the world, the first trailer shows the Grammy-winning rapper getting candid about his career and the struggles he faced as a queer Black man.
Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival last fall, and it’s set to arrive on HBO on January 27. Lil Nas X shared the first trailer less than a week after dropping his comeback single “J Christ”, set to be featured on his upcoming second studio album.

Friday also introduced us to several highly-anticipated new albums, including Kali Uchis’ Orquídeas, which she promoted with the release of “Igual Que Un Ángel” ft. Peso Pluma. It was also a great week for hip-hop fans, with 21 Savage and Kid Cudi both sharing new albums with the world.
Fans of alternative music won’t be disappointed by our list, either, since several leading indie and rock artists made the cut.

]]>The post Lil Nas X Makes a Comeback With Cinematic Video for “J Christ” appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>The music video for “J Christ” was written and directed by the rapper himself and he shot it in Mexico City. The video opens with lookalikes of Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Mariah Carey, and many other pop culture icons approaching the gates of heaven, to discover Lil Nas X waiting for them.
As the video progresses, we get to see the Grammy-winning rapper play with religious imagery, while also making several cheeky meta references. We get to watch him face Satan on the basketball court, climb the steps of the Met Gala, and dance in a cheerleading uniform—all while facing Judgement Day.
This music video marks Lil Nas X’s solo directorial debut, but the influence of his previous visuals is pretty obvious, most notably “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)”, which scored a Grammy nod for the best music video in 2022.
“J Christ” has been released as the lead single from the rapper’s upcoming second studio album, and he’s yet to share its release date and title with the world.

]]>Lil Nas X teased the release of an untitled single, set to hit the shelves on January 12, with a series of posts on social media. He told his rappers that he loves “this constant cycle the world has with [him]”, adding that his next single will prove his naysayers wrong.
“When I started making music, y’all told me I was just another Twitter rapper. Then I made the biggest song of all time. Y’all called me one hit wonder. Then I dropped one of the most streamed albums of the year with 3 top 5 hits… At some point y’all realize I’m god’s favorite,” he wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
This isn’t the first new piece of information that Lil Nas X shared about new music. Just last week, he revealed that he wrote and directed his own music video for the first time and promised he’ll “go bigger than before”. This upcoming single will mark his first release since 2022, but the Long Live Montero Tour has been keeping him pretty busy ever since.

]]>Lil Nas X ended 2023 by sharing some exciting news with his fans on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. The rapper tweeted, “Wrote AND directed my own music video for the first time. Excited for y’all to see. It’s the best one yet!”
Lil Nas X is no stranger to dropping hints about new music on social media, and this is exactly how his fans learned they’ll have to wait a little bit longer for his next album. Earlier this year, the rapper said he could easily drop new music if he wanted to, but added he has to build momentum and “go bigger than before” with his next project.
Lil Nas X’s debut studio album Montero hit the shelves in 2021 and scored him his second Grammy nomination for album of the year. It also produced chart-topping singles “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)” and “Industry Baby” ft. Jack Harlow.

]]>Directed by Carlos López Estrada and Zac Manuel, this documentary was shot over the course of 60 days during Lil Nas X’s critically acclaimed Long Live Montero Tour. It will offer a “remarkably intimate portrait of an artist on tour navigating identity, family, expectations, and acceptance” during one of the most transformational points of his life.
Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero will have its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, and its CEO described it as a triumphant ode to the extraordinary power of self-expression, music, and identity.
“In this groundbreaking documentary, we witness Lil Nas X challenging boundaries and reshaping the artistic landscape. The film’s captivating journey underscores the profound impact of Lil Nas X, who fearlessly brings audiences together through the universal language of music,” said Bailey in a press release.
Lil Nas X’s rise to prominence started with the release of his viral hit “Old Town Road”, which became the longest-running No. 1 song in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. His debut album Montero produced No. 1 singles “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)” and “Industry Baby” ft. Jack Harlow severed as the basis for his Long Live Montero Tour.

]]>Elton John performed his last UK show at Glastonbury, and it was one for the books! He brought everyone from The Killers’ Brandon Flowers to Rina Sawayama on stage while performing some of his biggest hits.
Speaking of surprise guests, Glastonbury was an embarrassment of the riches. Paul McCartney and Foo Fighter’s Dave Grohl joined The Pretenders on stage, while Jack Harlow performed “Industry Baby” by Lil Nas X’s side.
Lewis Capaldi was very open about his struggles with Tourette’s syndrome, and his ticks kicked in at Glastonbury. In one of the festival’s most emotional moments, the crowd sang his smash hit “Someone You Loved” after his voice broke, giving him enough time to gain composure.
Rina Sawayama delivered one of the festival’s most viral moments when she subtly called out The 1975’s Matty Healy for some of his problematic behavior before performing the song “STFU”.
Lana Del Rey’s performance was dramatically cut short at midnight due to the festival’s curfew, and fans were left with a sour taste in their mouth after security escorted her off stage.
