Lil Nas X is a singer best known for songs such as Old Town Road and MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name), the latter of which drew attention due to its explicitly gay lyrics and the religious imagery of its music video.
Montero (Call Me By Your Name)
The song and music video garnered praise from queer fans, and backlash from many homophobic and Christian conservative circles. The title is a reference to the book Call Me By Your Name, and its subsequent film adaptation.
The part of the video where Nas pole dances down to hell was incorporated and referenced in several TikTok videos as a popular meme on the site.
