In July 2021, Lil Nas X blew up on TikTok after people made videos poking fun at his \u2018Satan Shoes,\u2019 which contained a drop of his own blood. He was in good spirits about it all, and even joined in the trend. Now he\u2019s taking over the platform yet again after parodying a viral TikTok video in which a girl trying to kick-start her own music career claims Lil Nas X \u201csold his soul\u201d for success. The video starts off with the girl introducing herself. \u201cMy life f**king sucks. I\u2019m an artist from the middle of nowhere. I\u2019ve never gotten lucky or had any overnight success because I refuse to sell my soul,\u201d she said. However, when she says \u201cI refuse to sell my soul,\u201d her video shows a clip of Lil Nas X turning into a demon, implying he\u2019s guilty of doing that. Then, she begs people to stream her song so it can get to one million plays. Eventually, the video caught Lil Nas X\u2019s attention. He clapped back with a parody video of his own in which he imitates her and says things to try and earn people\u2019s sympathy \u2013 which is what she was accused of doing. \u201cMy life f**king sucks. I live in the middle of nowhere. My baby\u2019s father\u2019s left so I\u2019m a single mother raising a child by myself,\u201d he said. After that, he goes off on a tangent and makes hilarious tongue-in-cheek references to himself. He claims people think he worships the devil because he \u201clet Satan smash him\u201d and only go to his concerts to make fun of him. The original video pulled 15 million views in a month. However, Lil Nas X\u2019s video is a third of the way there in less than a day. So, if you do want to try and take down Lil Nas X, you have to make sure it\u2019s a big hit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lil Nas X roasts viral TikTok claiming he \u201csold his soul\u201d for success TikTok: Lil Nas XLil Nas X roasted a viral TikTok video in which an aspiring music artist claims he \u201csold his soul for success\u201d by making a parody video of his own, and it\u2019s blowing up on social media.
