Happy Friday everyone! In the US and many parts of the world, it's getting back to a point where the weekend actually means something again, so that's pretty cool! Anyway, enjoy your early access to this weekend's video, about people getting upset about satanic images in music... why, no, it's not 1975, why do you ask?
Lil Nas X broke the Billboard Hot 100's record for longest stay at Number 1 with his novelty song "Old Town Road". So, once the hype cools off, how do you follow that up? With Controversy! Lil Nas X released his newest video, "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)", using some of the oldest tricks in the playbook (mixed with a couple new ones)... but sometimes the oldest tricks are the best ones, because the Internet reactionaries proved they still work to upset one group while pushing another group toward seeing just what's so upsetting.

That's some quality fucking devil reverb.

I had to go back a few times to listen to the “they worship the devil! (devil!) (devil!)” part a few times ... that echo was genius!

That echo sound effect 😂😂 Also you’re damn right about KISS... and this is speaking as a KISS fan who knows a vast majority of their music is crap

Haha no that was not the plan, I didn't know it was his birthday. That's funny though, the same thing was also kind of an accident with the Olivia Rodrigo one (I was doing the video anyway, then found out while gathering info for it that it would be her birthday when I released it). Technically this doesn't officially come out until tomorrow, so it'll be the day after.

Man, I never understood why KISS became so popular. I always hated their music, they are also really bad musicians.

Did you intentionally release this on his birthday?.......

I'm so fucking excited for this dose. I'm a Satanist so I find the video absolutely hilarious as stereotypical as it is.
