Lil Nas X Hilariously Trolls Evangelicals to Perfection with ‘J Christ’ Single Promos

Rapper Lil Nas X has been triggering evangelicals by releasing promotional material for his new single ‘J Christ’ depicting him as Jesus Christ. He responded to backlash by claiming he’s genuinely Christian and is going to college for biblical studies at the fundamentalist Liberty University (founded by Jerry Falwell). In this video we’ll talk about the backlash he received and meaning behind his hilariously contentious art.
