Lil Nas X Faces Backlash for New Video
Initially announced November of 2023, Lil Nas X released his new single “J Christ” on Jan. 12. In the video, which can be seen below, Lil Nas X is depicted as Jesus in multiple scenes.
“Back-back-back up out the gravesite/B***h, I’m back like J Christ,” he raps on the track. “I’m finna get the gays hyped/I’m finna take it yay-high.”
Nas X faced backlash from Boosie BadAzz, Christian rapper Lecrae and others following the release of the video. Nas X has since shared an Instagram post explaining his rationale to the Christian community.
“I wanted to, not necessarily apologize, but I wanted to explain where my head at and where it’s been for like the last week,” Lil Nas X said in part. “First of all, when I did the artwork, I knew there would be some upset people and what not. Simply because, you know, religion is a very sensitive topic for a lot of people. But I also didn’t mean to mock. This wasn’t like a ‘F**k you’ to you people, ‘F**k you’ to the Christians. I was not that. It was literally me saying, ‘Oh, I’m back. I’m back like Jesus.’ That was the whole thing.”
Boosie isn’t buying it.
