His musical adeptness is admirable and sees him often sitting at the crossroads of hip-hop, rap, and pop. His last studio album, 2021\u2019s Montero, saw a star hitting his musical stride. The Grammy winner aimed for the stars and succeeded in reaching a new level of fame. In 2023, the singer\/rapper switches things up a bit and ventures way beyond his typical genre borders for something truly unexpected. It\u2019s doubtful this was on anyone\u2019s 2023 bingo card. Lil Nas X enters his Christian era with a new song teaser On Twitter\/X, Lil Nas X teased a new Christian song, writing, \u201cy\u2019all mind if i enter my christian era?\u201d The singer can be seen sitting inside the passenger\u2019s side of a truck singing over a gentle, guitar-led arrangement. \u201cFather stretch my hands \/ The lonely road seems to last the longest \/ Help me with my plans,\u201d he sings. \u201cEverything seems to go to nowhere \/ Free me from worry and wanting pity.\u201d The song crescendos until the beat drops in for what is likely the hook. \u201cI call on angels \/ I\u2019m trying hard to face my pain, yeah,\u201d he continues. \u201cGive me hope when I feel \/ Give me when I feel less.\u201d Lil Nas X responds to claims it\u2019s all a \u201cgimmick\u201d Many fans were still quick to call him out for \u201cmocking Christianity\u201d while others said, \u201cThat\u2019s not Christian but it\u2019s cute.\u201d Hours after the teaser, Lil Nas X took to Twitter to set the record straight. \u201cY\u2019all see everything I do as a gimmick. When in reality, I\u2019m just an artist expressing myself in different ways,\u201d he posted. \u201cWhether I\u2019m a cowboy, gay, satanic, or now Christian, y\u2019all find a problem! Y\u2019all don\u2019t police nobody else art like mine. Y\u2019all hate me because I\u2019m fun cute and petite.\u201d However, it appears that some users were still not appeased. \u201cStill a satanic video,\u201d wrote another commenter. Yet another user told him to \u201crepent. God hates all workers of iniquity. You are a worker of iniquity. Again, repent.\u201d For more entertainment news, keep it locked to Dexerto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lil Nas X claims he\u2019s entering his \u201cChristian era\u201d Wikimedia Commons, Raph_PHLil Nas X took to social media to tease his first Christian song and claimed he is now entering his \u201cChristian era.\u201d Lil Nas X has built a career around singing about an \u201cOld Town Road\u201d and sliding down poles to hell.
