Lil Nas is the highest-selling musician artist in the country this week.
Good news below…
The innovative star rose to fame a prominent member of Nicki Minaj’s fan base and turned his valuable social media water into music industry wine by using his popularity to launch a singing career.
The sum of his strategy? ‘Old Town Road.‘
It now reigns supreme at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
While Lil Nas X is the first artist to take an initial Hot 100 entry to No. 1 since Bradley Cooper just five weeks earlier, thanks to Cooper’s duet “Shallow” with Lady Gaga, Lil Nas X is the first artist unaccompanied by another act to top the Hot 100 on a first try since Cardi B, whose “Bodak Yellow (Money Moves)” spent three weeks at No. 1 in October 2017.
Well-deserved.
