Why Lil Nas X Passed on a Dream Collab with Taylor Swift!

Lil Nas X almost took a getaway car to the studio with Taylor Swift.

The artist behind “Old Town Road” shared that he and the performer known for “Lavender Haze” almost joined forces on a song, but unfortunately, the tune never progressed beyond its initial stages.

Lil Nas shared with Francesca Amiker of TopMob News during the GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles on March 27 that they were collaborating on a project. He explained that she proposed allowing him to attempt a verse for the collaboration, but he wasn’t feeling the rhythm for it, so the collaboration didn’t materialize.

Despite the “Call Me By Your Name” artist (whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill) initially not wanting to discuss the missed chance, he managed to let it go and instead commend Taylor.

In the interview on TopMob News, he expressed his pride and continued, “My girl, I’m so proud of her! She’s created an amazing album, and she’s truly excelling in what she does. She’s at the pinnacle of success. I feel grateful that she chose to involve me.

Regarding the possibility of collaborating in the future, he mentioned, “If and when it occurs… On a global scale, we’re talking about the world here… Tay-tay and Nassy.

Though Lil Nas X hasn’t teamed up with Taylor on a song so far, his goals extend beyond that collaboration. In truth, he expresses a strong desire to work together with the 2025 Grammy-winning artist Doechii in the future.

The 25-year-old stated, ‘My girl has been busy with her work,’ implying that they’ve been planning to record in the studio for nearly a year, yet haven’t managed to do so. What I really wish is to start performing again.

However, while Lil Nas X prepares to debut his second album titled “Dreamboy” this coming summer, it’s clear that he isn’t primarily looking for collaborations with other musicians at the moment.

He admitted, “Honestly, I’m quite engrossed in myself at the moment, entirely absorbed. But let me clarify, I’m more than open to collaborating with everyone I admire, especially all the talented ladies out there.

Regarding the atmosphere of Lil Nas X’s forthcoming album, he aims to avoid stirring up any unnecessary conflicts.

He expressed that the upcoming phase in music will be full of spontaneity. It’s going to be a joyful ride. Typically, I stir things up among people. But this time around, I wish to simply enjoy myself.
