Lil Nas X is now the proud parent of a whole album as his first record Montero dropped on Friday.
The rapper marked the occasion with a brilliant video of the moment he ‘gave birth’ to Montero having gone into labour on Thursday night.
The Panini star announced his ‘pregnancy’ in a special photoshoot with People earlier in September.
In the clip, Lil Nas is wheeled into hospital in tears (and a cheeky reference to DaBaby who is probs smarting right now) by two doctors who safely deliver him of a brand new album. Congrats!
‘It’s already Grammy nominated’, the proud musician says, cradling his little bundle of joy.
On the same day Lil Nas X – real name Montero Hill – dropped the music video for the bouncy pop track That’s What I Want.
As he sings passionately about finding someone to love, the video sees him have a fling with an American football player only to get his heart broken when he finds out he’s married with a child.
At the end the rapper walks down the aisle in a huge meringue of a wedding dress in floods of tears.
Lil Nas X, who triumphed at the MTV Video Music Awards days earlier with Call Me By Your Name, collaborates with a whole host of stars on his album including Sir Elton John, Megan Thee Stallion and Miley Cyrus.
Prior to the launch of his first album, Lil Nas X was seen making his mark on the red carpet at this year’s Met Gala held in New York.
The theme was American Independence and Lil Nas X went all out with his red carpet look that featured multiple layers including a gold suit of armour underneath a huge regal cape.
Sharing snaps of his red carpet moment to social media, he confessed: ‘Definitely having a moment,’ with Reese Witherspoon giving her seal of approval and Donatella Versace describing his look as ‘ABSOLUTELY DIVINE’.
Montero is out now.
