Lil Nas X has shared an introspective single, “Where Do We Go Now?” The reflective song was written for his HBO Original documentary Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero, which premieres Jan. 27 on Max.
The rapper announced the song, co-written by Lil Nas X alongside Omer Fedi and Blake Slatkin, earlier this week, teasing its inward-leaning nature by noting on social media, “good news yall im dropping new music to match with your depression.”

The new HBO documentary “Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero” chronicles the Grammy winner as he embarks on his debut concert tour of the same name. The behind-the-scenes film includes the Grammy winner talking about how his family has come to not only accept his queerness, but embrace his sexuality. He’s even taken his dad to a gay bar.
“I thought [coming out] was just going to be like an elephant in the room for a very long time,” Lil Nas X told me Wednesday night at the doc’s Los Angeles premiere. “I never would have thought to do gay stuff with my dad, but he insisted. He was like, ‘No, I want to go with you guys!’ So, yeah, that was the best night ever.”
Lil Nas X’s brother, Tramon Hall, comes out as bisexual in the film. “I didn’t expect him to open up like that...

On Twitter, we see Lil Nas X the troll. In his music, we hear Lil Nas X the musician. And in his new documentary, the “J Christ” singer hopes to give viewers a glimpse of Lil Nas X the human.
“Some people think my music is dope. Some people see me as this satanic devil. But me?” he reflects while laying down.
The trailer shows clips of his upbringing as he was grappling with deep anxiety attacks, and videos from his performances as he talks about the struggles of coming out to his family.

Lil Nas X is reflecting on his controversial song and music video J Christ and offering an apology following backlash.
“I know I messed up really bad this time. I can act unbothered all I want, but it’s definitely taken a mental toll on me,” the singer said in a video he shared on Instagram on Jan. 15. “I’m not some evil demon guy trying to destroy everybody’s values and stuff like that. That’s not me.”
Lil Nas X went on to explain that he knew there would be some criticism to his artwork but his intention was not to make a mockery out of religion or people’s beliefs.
“When I did the artwork, I knew there would be some upset people simply because religion is a very sensitive topic for a lot of people. But I also didn’t mean to mock — this wasn’t...

He’s repenting.
On Friday, Lil Nas X released his new single “J Christ” — complete with a video of him being strapped to a cross. Now, the pop star is addressing the backlash he’s faced for his Christianity-referencing rollout. In a video posted Monday, the singer apologized for some of his approach to promoting the music.
“This is not to try to get everybody on my good side or whatnot. This is more so to clear my head about my own decisions. I know I messed up really bad this time,...

Lil Nas X is treating his latest single “J Christ” as a new beginning, a clean slate as he launches into his first album since his debut record Montero nearly three years ago. “The old has passed away; behold, the new has come,” reads a Bible verse that appears at the end of the newly-released video. After he’s survived a treacherous storm, he begins steering his ark towards calmer waters. The rapper even dedicated the record to “the man who had the greatest comeback of all time.” But comebacks...

He has risen: Lil Nas X is back with “J Christ,” his first new single in two years.
Much like his lightning bolt 2021 single “Montero (Call Me By Your Name),” Lil Nas X has pulled out all the stops in the accompanying video for “J Christ.” Marking Lil Nas X’s solo directorial debut, the video sees the rapper spoof various Biblical tales, and play a one-on-one basketball game against the devil, alongside a cast of celebrity impersonators that includes Kanye West, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Oprah, Mariah Carey, and Barack Obama.
A press release for the video goes on to note: “As for those doubting which direction Lil Nas X has chosen, he proudly proclaims ‘This Way’, choosing to express his spirituality in his own way. He’s forging a new life for himself while nodding to the journey that led him here, complete with homage to his iconic...

Lil Nas X has dropped his new song “J Christ” and the music video explains the meaning behind his Jesus-inspired single.
The 24-year-old singer and rapper seems to be comparing Jesus’ resurrection to his own return to music.
“Is he up to somethin’ only I-i know? / Is he ’bout to hit ‘em with the high-igh note? / Is he ’bout to give ‘em somethin’ vi-iral?” Lil Nas X sings in the chorus of the song.
A press release from Lil Nas X‘s team has explained the story behind the music video, which begins with a slew of celebrity impersonators.

Lil Nas X has returned after two years in between albums — surely the musical equivalent of 40 days in the desert — with his new song, “J. Christ.” The single released alongside a provocative video, marking the artist’s solo directorial debut.
The visual opens with a flock of people marching up the stairway to heaven, including a bunch of berated celebrity lookalikes with a bare minimum resemblance to Taylor Swift, Barack Obama, Oprah, Kanye West, and Ed Sheeran. The camera pans down to the depths of hell to find the artist...
