It’s been quite some time since Lil Nas X broke the internet with his debut album Montero, and he’s finally plotting its follow-up. The Grammy-winning rapper said he’ll kick off a new era by dropping a music video that he had written and directed on his own for the first time ever.
Lil Nas X took to social media to tell his fans he’s getting ready to launch a new era. He shared the exciting news by tweeting, “Wrote AND directed my own music video for the first time. Excited for y’all to see. It’s the best one yet!”
The rapper didn’t share any additional hints about his next single, but his tweet was accompanied by church and dove emojis. He also discussed the release of his next album on social media earlier this year, and told fans, “I could easily just release music but I have to build moments around this s—t. I have to go bigger than before.”
Lil Nas X’s debut studio album Montero came out in 2021 and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart before receiving a Grammy nod for album of the year. It also produced two No. 1 singles: “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)” and “Industry Baby” ft. Jack Harlow.
