Lil Nas X Admits His Current Creative Spirit Is 'Honestly in the Garbage Can'
On his upcoming music: “My creative spirit is honestly in the garbage can. I want to be completely honest. But I feel like it’s coming back. Yeah, I’m not worried because I know it’s going to come and I know it’s going to be the best s–t I’ve ever made thus far. I’m just super confident in that, and I’m just happy to be in the in-between right now.
On “STAR WALKIN’” for League of Legends: “I’m not really much of a gamer anymore. I haven’t been since a teenager. But for whatever reason, I have a huge gamer fan base, and this is sick for them.Making this song was a lot of fun. I had the verses forever, and it took, no joke, 30 different, 40 different 50, I don’t know how many different hooks, to get the hook to a place where I’m, ‘Okay, this is something I like. That’s cool.’ But overall I had a fun time in the studio. I had a fun time putting these pop elements and drill elements together. I thought it was really cool.”
On Madonna’s words of encouragement: “She came to my show last night. And it was a full circle moment because she brought me back to her show in 2019. So yeah, that was cool. Actually, I didn’t actually get a chance to get a good conversation with her because I was about to go out onto the stage. And as I told you earlier, I have to s–t from nervousness. That’s exactly what I had to tell her when I went out onto the stage. But she told me she’s going to be there and rooting for me and stuff like that. And that was really cute and sweet. And I was, ‘That’s so dope. Madonna‘s at my f–king show, bro.’”
