This song is VERY catchy. Maybe one day I'll meet Lil Nas X and tell him in person...


If you meet him, you better have something more interesting to say than tell him his song that spent eleven weeks at #1 is catchy. confused

Don't know. This might be a case of the song wind up being bigger than the artist performing it like The Twist, Gangnam Style, I'm Too Sexy, Bust A Move, It Takes Two, Bad To The Bone, My Toot Toot, Cha Cha Slide, Stanky Legg, Who Let The Dogs Out, Macarena, etc. They're all still popular party songs.


That makes the most sense. Hell.... "Achy Breaky Heart" was never topped either.

Wasn't Billy Ray behind the Hannah Montana TV show? If so, then he probably made way more money off that than with Achy Breaky.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

New Music: Lil Nas X Releases Debut 7 EP

Country/trap rapper Lil Nas X dropped his long-awaited debut 7 EP, featuring fan favorites "Old Town Road" (Billy Ray Cyrus remix), "Panini" and "Rodeo" featuring Cardi B.

The 20-year-old continues his domination atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart. "Old Town Road" is still No. 1 for 11 weeks in a row, making it the second-longest running debut single on the chart behind Los Del Rio's "Macarena."


The 7 EP features six new songs including "Panini" and "Rodeo" ft. Cardi B (listen to the audio below). Both tracks were produced by Take A Daytrip, while "F9mily" was produced by Travis Barker. Boi-1da produced "Closure."

The country/trap rapper is eager for a "Panini" remix collaboration with celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.

"Tryna get gordon ramsay on this panini remix," he tweeted. While his followers took the plea as a joke, Gordon himself responded a few hours later, tweeting: "Tell me more..."

"Panini", which debuted on Thursday, June 20, features a sample from Nirvana's "In Bloom", off the alternative rock band's iconic 1991 album Nevermind.

Nas revealed Kurt Cobain's daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, gave him permission to use the sample. Nas, who shares songwriting credit with Kurt Cobain on "Panini", tweeted "thank you" to the 26-year-old artist and model, whose mother is rock singer and actress Courtney Love.

Kurt took his own life in 1994 at age 27.

7 EP Tracklist

1. Old Town Road (BRC Remix)
2. Panini
3. F9mily
4. Kick it
5. Rodeo ft. Cardi B
6. Bring U Down
7. C7osure
8. Old Town Road (Original)

Lil Nas X - Rodeo ft. Cardi B

Lil Nas X(whom I may finally get to meet Sunday) is a break star now.

I haven't seen that part of the BET awards yet. Just keeping with the cowboy theme; apparently, he had enough for another EP.

Color me clueless but I like it.

I've read horrible reviews but I can't fathom why.

Lil Nas X is NOT a lyrical rapper to my ears.

Its a lil bit country and a lil but rap. lol What's not to like. lol lol lol

Cowboy Troy's songs have more of an actual country music sound than Old Town Road does. A few years ago, there was a bluegrass remake by Dana & Lauren of California Love (Dr. Dre, Roger Troutman, Tupac).

Actually is was a pun... biggrin Mickey do you remember when Donny and Maria Osmond Show use to have that segment? " I'm a lil' bit county, she's a lil' bit rock & roll". dancing jig

ODB used that "country/rock n roll" line on the remix for Mariah Carey's Fantasy

Not really, it was a joke. I just notice when people make the same comments over & over, not just in the threads I make. I get a basic idea of who people like or don't like from their posts. Like there used to be a poster here who always made long anti-Beyoncé/Jay-Z rants. If there was a Beyoncé topic, no matter what it was about, she was there. There was another who often made bigoted/racist comments. I think both of them were banned.

Well, humor (and sarcasm) doesn't always translate in print.

im not "paasing judgement" on him as a person...i just think his product is trash...its that simple...im not sure why that makes people feel pressed...if i feel Lil Nas X or Bruno Mars music is trash, thats my opinion...everybody doesnt like everything...and everyone is entitled to their own opinion...its really not that deep, to consider it as "passing judgement" or "hatin"...

Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” Spends 10th Straight Week at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100
Marisa Mendez June 10, 2019 XXL

Lil Nas X has just reached a new big-time milestone with "Old Town Road"

According to a report Billboard published Monday (June 10), the Georgia rapper's breakout tune has topped the Billboard Hot 100 for the tenth week in a row. This puts the newcomer at the longest No. 1 reign since Drake's "In My Feelings" dominated for ten weeks in 2018.

On top of that, "Old Town Road" leads the Streaming Songs chart for its tenth week and its also just landed on top of Digital Song Sales chart for its sixth week. On the Radio Songs chart, he sits at No. 2. The song has been out for months now, but with all of its momentum, it's undoubtedly still a contender for Song of the Summer for 2019, as it's clearly not losing steam any time soon.

In recent Lil Nas X news, the mother of a young man who had never before spoken due to his autism recently found him miraculously singing the words to "Old Town Road." While sharing the video she captured on Twitter, the woman explained how her son hasn't said a full sentence since birth, and thanks to Lil Nas X's chart-topping song, that all changed.

The video caught the attention of the rapper, who shared the video to his timeline with the caption, "What a king."

Just noticed there is a Prince symbol behind him.

Nelly, TLC, & Flo Rida was on Sway In The Morning recently talking about their upcoming tour. Sway mentioned that Nelly was doing what Nas X is doing years ago and his first single was Country Grammar. They were talking about Nas X's problem with the Billboard country chart and Nelly said rap didn't have that issue because Vanilla Ice & Eminem had hits on the rap chart.
