Lil Nas X Teases His New Album, And Fans Are READY
The rapper gave an update on when we can finally expect new music.
Lil Nas X is ready to get going on his next album, and he’s already dropping hints about what fans might be able to expect.
The rapper got drawn into a conversation with fans on Twitter earlier this week after they were throwing around jokes about how long it had been since he’d released new music — over 150 days, according to one fan’s calculation.
Another asked when his follow up to his 2021 debut album, MONTERO, would finally be headed our way, to which Lil Nas replied, “most likely summer.”

The line of questioning continued, as people tried to draw out as much information about the upcoming tracks from him as they could.
\u201c@teebelair @lovesmontero @SneakyNas @LilVakX @GhastlyLNX @notpranto idk i love so many songs plus i\u2019m still in the studio making music so it\u2019s gone be hard to pick\u201d— i am reading all that (@i am reading all that) 1676908447
\u201c@nasxfiddy @teebelair @lovesmontero @SneakyNas @LilVakX @GhastlyLNX @notpranto it\u2019s mostly planning now. i could easily just release music but i have to build moments around this shit. i have to go bigger than before!\u201d— i am reading all that (@i am reading all that) 1676908698
\u201c@LilVakX @GhastlyLNX @notpranto i didn\u2019t make many of those i been too happy lately\u201d— pranto (@pranto) 1676876147
\u201c@SneakyNas @LilVakX @GhastlyLNX @notpranto it leaked but it\u2019s still on the album\u201d— pranto (@pranto) 1676876147
One question Lil Nas refused to answer was whether there would be any exciting features on the new album. Whether that’s because he’s keeping those cards close to his chest or because the album isn’t far enough along yet to know is anybody’s guess, but considering how feature-heavy MONTERO was, and how Lil Nas’s fame has only grown since then, it seems likely there will be some great artists lending their talent to his songs.
\u201c@nasxmont @lovesmontero @SneakyNas @LilVakX @GhastlyLNX @notpranto ooooooh\u201d— i am reading all that (@i am reading all that) 1676908447
But for specifics, we’ll just have to wait and see — hopefully not too long, if his promise of summer holds true.
Lil Nas X's name is Montero Lamar Hill.
Lil Nas X decided to use his internet alias for his stage name rather than his given name.
