It's a shit novelty song among the company of songs like The Macarena, Who Let The Dogs Out, and Cotton Eye Joe.

Ironic that Billy Ray is on it, another meme of an artist who's only hit song Achey Brakey Heart was a giant meme. Overall....who cares about meme pop hits kids and grandmas find funny to play at birthday parties?

It has the double advantage of being a novelty song like the ones you've mentioned AND a very catchy song with a universal appeal, which is often not the case with these types of jams.

I still haven't heard it

doesn't mean anything nowadays with streaming. might as well run billboard with youtube views.

>The Macarena, Who Let The Dogs Out, and Cotton Eye Joe
Good reminder that this shit has been happening forever, even though it's pushed by the industry much more now.

But yes, this song is as deeply entrenched in memes as possible.
>Mason Ramsey (yodeling walmart kid) in remix
>Billy Ray
>tik tok viral campaign gave it the boost
>literal who rapper brewed in a test tube to appeal perfectly to mainstream pop, country, and rap audiences
>half meme sounding vocals
>artificial name recognition, lil nas x = 9999th lil name + reference to Nas + xxxtentaction
>maserati and wrangler collaborations planned probably before the song was written

I haven't heard it. Hoping I can make it through the rest of my life without hearing it.

the judge laughed, and spat

its a jew psyop

I gave in and gave him ONE (1) listen a few days ago. It fucking sucked

It really is just the perfect storm

and u forgot 2 factors that increases the attention of medias:
>queer/gay singer who come out
>unusual race for the musical genre
it certainly helped to create clickbait headlines

t. no-fun-allowed whitoid

You don't listen to white novelty songs, fuck off with your racist crap "blackoid". Nobody on a music board on Yea Forums is going to take this song seriously just because it's a black guy.

Is fun the new word for ironic?

hecking dudebro wit-oid edgelords and their highbrow bullshit smdh

i like when songs make people happy, listening to Red House Painters constantly will fry your brain

Lmao. Didn't even know he was gay.
>a fucking gay black cowboy rapper singer

Why would the jews want nigs and rednecks to come together to enjoy a shitty song?

Further proof that the end is nigh.

Deep conspiracies aside, it's as simple as having the widest audience possible which equals more $

so more white women get blacked

deescalation
shotgun marketing

good for him, he seems like a nice dude and I'm really happy he found success

>Can't nobody tell me nothing

>cant
>nobody
>nothing
Why do niggers do this

I hate the shitty song but to be fair, you could just as easily hear that in a real country song too

[unbearably becky voice] african american vernacular english [starts snapping her fingers and head-bobbing]

to hypnotize the gangstas and the country chads to join together and kill all the incels

It's a triple negative so it actually goes back to true negative again

have to wait for the next dsa convention i guess

Bunch of racist whites making a black man #1

Never heard it. Probably never will. I'm happy I don't live in Cuckmerica

Media attention so great I didn't even know he's gay. Oh and "unusual race"? People with "unusual race" disease should not make any music, fucking attention seekers. My dada never have me attention so wh

It’s proof that we’re doing our job here. The Donald is president and the biggest song of all time is now a country rap novelty bit by a gay black kid. Our civilization is becoming a living meme. Don’t get too complacent though. We’ve still got lots of work still to do.

Clown world

what the fuck is this post

one of the worst songs ever

I like modern rap but i gotta say this proves modern music is garbage and modern Taste is shit if this is now the most popular song ever.

the music industry is genius

LNX even revealed he was an ind*stry pl*nt the entire time, and there's reason to believe the entire "controversy" was manufactured right from the start.

It's a novelty song yeah, but I'd take Old Town Road than Macarena, Who Let The Dogs Out and Cotton Eye Joe anyday and everyday. Especially, Macarena. Fuck that song and fuck everyone who forced me to dance to it.
