Lil Nas X, as usual, trolled his critics as he accepted the award. The artist who is behind the hits “Montero” and “Industry Baby” was also praised for his creativity. Singer Chloe Bailey who presented the award after introducing the Lil Nas X, spoke of the reason he was receiving the award. Lil Nas X, who has been absent from the internet for three months, was honored with Variety’s Innovator award at the 2021 Hitmakers event held in December.
Nas X also added, “Why are people surprised i’ve been away for so long? have y’all really never heard of maternity leave?” “Which one y’all want first?” he asked fans on Twitter. In a surprising tweet, he revealed collabs with two of the hottest rappers on the scene now, NBA YoungBoy and openly gay rapper Saucy Santana. It seems Lil Nas X has been using his downtime also to put in some work in the studio as he readies his next album.
The Montero rapper broke his social media hiatus and returned to Twitter on Wednesday, March 16, to tease some upcoming music.
