Much like "WAP" was used by conservatives to have a non-existent debate about culture and the influence of entertainers, it's almost as though Lil Nas X is trying to frustrate that same crowd with his latest video. The queer anthem begins with Lil Nas X explaining that, in life, we often hide the parts of ourselves that we don't want the world to see. It took almost twenty years for LNX to come to grips with his sexuality but, in "MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)", he's fully embracing himself as a gay man, trolling the world in the process.
The highly-stylized video begins with Lil Nas X exploring this new fantastical world before he starts his ascent to Heaven. Once he nearly reaches God though, he begins to slide down a pole, twirling around and stumbling into Hell. He walks up flirtatiously to the Devil and gives him a lapdance, which is sure to trigger homophobes and bigots across social media.
