Lil Nas X — From Memes to Millions

Still holding out at the top of Billboard's Hot 100 after 17 weeks, Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" has become the longest charting No.1 single ever, a coveted record once held by the likes of Mariah Carey and Luis Fonsi. It's record-breaking journey, however, was filled with ups and downs, including its revocation from Billboard's Country Charts and humble beginnings from everything TikTok.
