Country rapper Lil Nas X song “old told road”

With everything going on in country music, the latest to hit the scene was a artist by the name of Lil Nas X who’s been tearing up headlines by creating a rapping country song this past year. He’s not your typical country artist due to the fact that he’s rapping over a country beat and the sound is definitely different from regular music that country music fans are used to. He was recently nominated for the song but unfortunately didn’t win because to some the song wasn’t “country enough”. The song has made the three different billboard charts such as Hip Hop/Hot R&B and Hot country songs and has charted the 100 billboard and since he redid the song, he added some help to assist with the tone of the song. He choose Billy Ray Cyrus as the feature to help him attain the country song that everybody so desperately wanted and everyone knows what Billy Ray has done for country music so with him asking him for a feature could do him the artist Lil Nas some justice.  This isn’t the first time rap has made a cross over with country music, back in 2009, artist Nelly made a song with Tim McGraw called over and over, which did good for both as their careers grew even more from creating this song, so the sky’s the limit for Lil Nas X if he wants to continue down that route.
