Lil Nas X’s new controversial single “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” has hit another milestone.  This single debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week.

First, Lil Nas X was humbled and tweeted his excitment.

y’all told a 19 year old who had just escaped the lowest point of his life that he would never have a hit again. you told him to stop while he’s ahead. he could’ve gave up. but 4 multi platinum songs and 2 #1’s later, he’s still here. thank you to my team and my fans! ily 🏹🤍 https://t.co/cW0UiXjJOk

The song itself has been broadly interpreted as a celebration of his sexuality. However, the video has been heavily criticized because of it’s demonic and satanic imagery.
