The 19-year-old artist, born Montero Lamar Hill, is taking things in stride. He comes across as a charming, self-aware, internet savvy teen who, despite having a penchant for going viral, is still figuring out in real time the exact nature of his fame. He’s optimistic about his long-term future, but also keenly points out that not everyone who loves “Old Town Road” is going to be a Lil Nas X fan down the road.
The meaning behind the X in your name shows that you’re clearly thinking about the long term. Where do you see yourself in a decade?
I want to build to that mogul, legendary level. I believe that my head isn't even big enough to wrap myself around how big I will be at that time. So I wouldn't be able to tell you.
