For those that don’t know, Lil Nas X is the man behind the hit song ‘Old Town Road’. The super smash hit single featuring Billy Ray Cyrus has been dominating the airwaves and festivals for the last few weeks. As the song continues to trend on playlists everywhere, more and more people are intrigued by exactly who is Lil Nas X? For starters, Lil Nas X is a 20 year old rapper from Atlanta Georgia whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill. If you’ve heard the song (which is about 95% of America), you know the song has a pure country vibe and is considered a country song by many radio stations. But is Lil Nas X really a country artist or simply playing and dressing the part for spins?
If you’ve seen Lil Nas X, he was most likely wearing a cowboy hat and some Wranglers. Speaking of Wranglers, Wranglers just launched a denim collaboration with Lil Nas X which was inspired by the single:
So with the new Wrangler deal and a cowboy hat that seems to be stuck to his head, is someone actually forcing the cowboy outfit on Lil Nas X to milk the success of ‘Old Town Road’? Or does Lil Nas X simply love the look and he really is a cowboy? Give a scroll through Twitter and people definitely think Columbia Records (Lil Nas X’s record label) is forcing the cowboy outfit on Lil Nas X…

The tweets and talk behind Lil Nas X’s look intrigued us to find out the truth about the rapper’s look. So we actually reached out to Columbia Records to determine if they’ve had any influence on Lil Nas X’s outfit selections and…..
No response yet. We will keep you updated if we hear back from Columbia.
For now, what do you think? Is Columbia Records forcing Lil Nas X to dress like a cowboy?
