Following the massively controversial ‘Montero’ era of 2021, Lil Nas X spent most of 2022 and 2023 on the quieter side of headlines.
That changed last week when the GRAMMY winner unveiled a peek at the single cover artwork for his “comeback” single ‘J Christ’ – a visual that depicts him being crucified like Jesus Christ.
Inciting an expected backlash, LNX – when not defending his artistic decision – followed with eye-popping teasers that will definitely get people talking.
Ahead of the tune’s official debut on Thursday (January 11), see the “trailer” inside.
After the 24-year-old ruffled feathers for what some believed was ridicule of religious imagery, he took to Twitter to clap back at the critics (as seen above).
“The crazy thing is nowhere in the picture is a mockery of Jesus. Jesus’ image is used throughout history in people’s art all over the world,” he told his 7.8 million followers. “I’m not making fun of shit. Y’all just gotta stop trying to gatekeep a religion that was here before any of us were even born. Stfu.”
To rub even more salt in the diss, LNX unveiled a visual of himself gorging on communion.

As the people continue to talk, the rapper-singer took to social media on Wednesday (January 10) to unveil the official teaser for the ‘J Christ’ video.
See it below.
I’m not watching it, but why argue with him about it? You can’t argue with someone who doesn’t reason well and has no good will for anything. He’s already shown us who and what he worships, so why waste time with him?
At this point it’s comical the desperation he has. He’s starting to really get on my last nerve. Anything else to talk about or reference in his music other than the devil and Jesus? Getting old.
I hope your ugly f a g bum ass burn in hell for mocking Jesus
Ugh the gimmicks are tired. I could see if he had a discernible talent to back it up but…..
Satanic just like Flopyonce 🙁
It’s funny you say this bc there’s this prophet lady on YouTube and she said Beyonce is God’s #1 enemy but I think she is wrong, it definitely should be Nas X…Beyonce ain’t innocent by far but she ain’t NEVER did some of the sh!t Nas X has done
