So much so, that the music video for the hit has over 750 million views on YouTube at the time of writing. Since then he has gone on to produce a range of tracks and collaborate with some huge celebrities. In March 2021, the star released one of his biggest hits since \u2018Old Town Road,\u2019 Call Me By Your Name, which promptly went viral on TikTok and YouTube. However, the song and accompanying music video did get a substantial amount of backlash from people who claimed it encouraged devil worshipping. In April, the rapper also released unauthorized custom Nike \u2018Satan Shoes\u2019 for fans to purchase, inspired by the premise of his new single. This landed him in some legal trouble with Nike, and he\u2019s reportedly soon to be appearing in court over the dispute.
