Time Magazine Names Lil Nas X One Of The 100 Most Influential People Of 2021
Lil Nas X is having a controversial year, making headlines for his astonishing creativity and also for his gay antics. It’s paid off as he’s been named in Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people of 2021.
Lil Nas X has been getting praises for his bold and fearless performances and music videos and also for his efforts to push for LGBTQ acceptance in the hip-hop/ music industry and community.
While speaking about Nas X for the Time Magazine feature, fellow rapper Kid Cudi said, “There’s a homophobic cloud over hip-hop, and he’s going to break that sh-t down. We have to stand with him. I’m going to do whatever I have to do to let him know—you have my support. When we do our song together, however trippy the video is, let’s get sexy with it.”

“Lil Nas X is a new twist on some of the themes I was riding on when I first started out: being true to yourself and not giving a f-ck what anyone says. What he’s doing is what we need right now.”
He continued, “To have a gay man in hip-hop doing his thing, crushing records—that is huge for us and for Black excellence.”
Other pioneers, leaders, artists, innovators and icons that are apart of the most influential people of the 2021 list include Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Tennis Star Naomi Osaka, pop star Britney Spears, activist and attorney Ben Crump, singer Billie Eilish and more.
Congratulations to Lil Nas X!
