We meet our hero in an Edenic garden, where he is. To date, “Old Town Road” has become the longest-running number one hip-hop song in Billboard history and has gone three times platinum.

In one of many hilarious clapback tweets, X comically wrote, “next ni**a to say something offensive to me getting kissed.” That post not only prompted more, less than happy Twitter replies, but also garnered over one million likes.
