Lil Nas X has spent much of the week promoting his newly released single ‘J Christ.’
And while much of his time has been apportioned to teasing the track and its controversial video (in which he recreates many biblical scenes as Jesus, Moses, and more), the 23-year-old has also poured time into clapping back at his critics.
