Lil Nas X Faces Backlash for Religious Imagery, Lookalikes & More in New Teaser | Billboard News
Lil Nas X is once again at the center of controversy as he teases his new video for his upcoming single “J Christ” which is set to drop soon. The video is full of celebrity lookalikes, including Taylor Swift, Kanye West, and Barack Obama, and features religious imagery that has sparked backlash.
People have criticized Lil Nas X for using religious imagery, comparing him to Madonna, Nicki Minaj, and other artists who have incorporated religious themes in their work. Many have accused him of trolling and being disrespectful.
In response to the criticism, Lil Nas X fired back on social media, stating that he is not trying to imitate or be like any other artists and that he is simply doing what he wants with his career. He emphasized that he is not seeking to emulate the work of Gaga or Madonna and defended his creative choices.
The controversy surrounding the teaser for his new video comes after the backlash he received for twerking on a devil in his “Montero” music video. Despite the criticism, Lil Nas X remains unapologetic and is urging people to let the music speak for itself when it is released.
As the anticipation for his new single grows, it is clear that Lil Nas X is unafraid to push boundaries and challenge societal norms through his artistry. Whether his new video will live up to the controversy remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure – he is not backing down.
