Hello There, this is Guillaume. This is a bit outside of what we usually talk about, however, I have been in the music industry for almost a decade and have been quite curious about Lil Nas X.
Here is the full version of the article: What artists can learn from Lil Nas X.
‘Old Town Road’ was initially released independently on December 3, 2018.
It started with a beat produced by YoungKio, which Lil Nas X purchased from his store on BeatStars for somewhere around $40 — $50.
At the time, Montero was already making music for a few months. He knew he was not going to go back to school, but for it to work with his parents he took the year off. 12 Months ago, he said he would have not seen himself doing music.
He moved in with his sister while promoting himself on the internet until she got fed up. As he did not want to go back to his parents' house, this is when he started to think about the lyrics.
He said, “the horse would be the little things you have, and the old town road would be the path to success”. “The song is a manifestation of itself, that’s the most insane part”.
That’s pretty much it, I am not going to rumble on with info you do not care about. However, if you are interested to learn more about what Lil Nas X did to grow since the release of Old Town Road, check out the full article.
Thank you,
Guillaume
