Lil Nas X has some folks upset over his new video “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name).”

Lil Nas X is the latest artist to come under fire by the right, for expressing his sexuality.

For the past two weeks, conservatives have been up in arms over a raunchy performance by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion at the Grammy Awards. 

Cardi’s performance of “Up” and “WAP” made talking heads like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens furious, due to the graphic display of lust and sexuality in front of a national audience. 

Lil Nas X must have been taking notes, and preparing himself for the backlash over his latest video “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name),” which features the rapper in the garden of Eden, surrounded by sin and temptation. 

 Lil Nas X ends up in chains and gets stoned to death.W hen presented with the option between heaven or hell, Lil Nas X chooses the latter. 

While he’s enjoying purgatory, the “Old Town Road” hitmaker grinds on Satan and even gives Beelzebub a lap dance.

While he’s been mostly praised for being an openly gay Black man, Lil Nas X has been receiving some pushback over the video. 

Twitter user @robbystarbuck said: “It’s just sick and depraved and an attempt to destroy our society.”

Lil Nas X took offense to the comment.

 

“There is a mass shooting every week that our government does nothing to stop. me sliding down a cgi pole isn’t what’s destroying society,” the 21-year-old rap star quipped, referencing recent mass shootings in Georgia, and Colorado. 

Rap star Big Sean also commended Lil Nas X for his fearlessness. 

“The creativity n confidence to do you fully is my favorite part! Keep rockin bro,” Big Sean told Lil Nas X who replied: “Wow bro thanks! means a lot coming from you! i’m blasting deep reverence today!”
