Lil Nas X Nominated For Country Music Award After Being Booted From Billboard, First Openly Gay Man Nominated EVER (via Bossip)
was removed from the Billboard charts because it “didn’t have enough country elements”. Fast forward 90 days and the upstart Atlanta rapper has the biggest song in music history and is now nominated for a Country Music Award., Lil Nas X is the very first openly gay artist to receive a CMA nomination.
Lil Nas X’s and Billy Ray Cyrus have been nominated for Musical Event Of The Year. We’re not very familiar with their competition, but when you have the certified longest standing Billboard #1 in music history, who is REALLY f**kin’ with you? “Old Town Road” will compete with Maren Morris’s “All My Favorite People,” Brooks & Dunn’s “Brand New Man,” Garth Brooks and Blake Shelton’s “Dive Bar,” and Brantley Gilbert and Lindsay Ell’s “What Happens in a Small Town.”
“Old Town Road” should be the prohibitive favorite to take home the statue. But we wouldn’t put it past the lily-white crowd to hate.
