It is currently unclear if the track he’s previewed will be a standalone single, or part of a larger release. Lil Nas X has yet to release an album since 2021 debut ‘MONTERO’. However, the musician has released a handful of one-off singles since then, most recently sharing ‘HERE WE GO!’, from the Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F soundtrack, in June.

‘HERE WE GO!’ marked his third solo release of the year. Back in January, he dropped his first gospel song, ‘J Christ’, which received backlash from the Christian community. The cover art for ‘J Christ’ saw Nas X being hoisted up on a cross, similar to the narrative of Jesus’ crucifixion, and many said it was a “mockery of Christ”. It also got the stamp of approval from the Church of Satan. In response, the ‘Rodeo’ star said it was “depressing” to see the negativity surrounding the song.

“I’ve never been here, mentally and even physically, where… you push your art into the world, and it’s received negatively by the majority,” he told Jay Shetty in a recent appearance on his On Purpose podcast. “But then, like, also understanding why, and having to see it through.” He added, “You can become super angry with yourself.”

He then released ‘Where Do We Go Now?’, which he wrote in collaboration with Omer Fedi and Blake Slatkin. The introspective song came out ahead of his HBO Max documentary, Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero.
