Lil Nas X is on his way to becoming the next big viral sensation, and he has the community behind him.
While X had the number one song last week in the country with the original “Old Town Road,” the remix featuring Billy Ray Cyrus pushed the song further, and has given the young artist his second number 1 hit. Both songs this past week were streamed a combined total of 143 million times.
According to Billboard, the song increased “by 207%, from 46.6 million U.S. streams to 143 million, shattering the record for the most streams in a week.” These new record breaking moments come after X’s original song was removed from the Country Billboard charts because it allegedly didn’t fit the guidelines for a country song.
Cyrus hoped on the remix to give the song an “official” Country feel, and now it’s another number 1 song.
