Lil Nas X’s new song “Trust Me” was released on April 24, and it shared more about his sexuality, candidly revealing details about his personal life.
Back in March, prior to the song coming out, the 25-year-old rapper talked about the track’s preview, tweeting:
“i hate explaining myself every time i do anything, but this is not for shock. this is me telling my story, y’all being uncomfortable by it does not make it a gimmick. this is for me and my fans f**k everybody else.”
In the said preview video, Lil Nas X sings:
“Cap and gown, I graduated and got out of town
Went to college where I had no one around
Grindr sessions, sextin’ with faceless accounts
Bringin’ bodies in me then sneaking them out
Back in middle school, I was fiending for d**k
7th grade, sending my homies some pics
Daddy never knew what I did as a kid
He would’ve crucified me but”
