More Lil Nas X More Lil Nas X

After finally dropping his debut album Montero to widespread critical acclaim last week, Lil Nas X has been having a hell of a moment these last few days.

From picking up a feature album spot on triple j and now on track to crack one billion streams on Spotify for his single Montero (Call Me By Your Name), the young rapper is absolutely smashing it around the world.

To celebrate the launch, Lil Nas X dropped by the UK radio staple BBC Live Lounge to perform some new tracks, as well as deliver a stellar rendition of the Dolly Parton classic, Jolene.

The Old Town Road singer is also set to make waves around the country, with the midweek ARIA projections leaning considerably in his favour for the next few days. The new album and recent single That's What I Want both looking like they'll enter the charts this week.
