Lil Nas X says second album is “close to finished” and teases four new songs
Lil Nas X has returned from his social media hiatus with clips of four new tracks and news that his second album is almost ready.
The 22-year-old brought his social media break, which began in December 2021, to an end with a series of tweets starting on 16 March.
Lil Nas X first said: “Why are people surprised I’ve been away for so long? Have y’all really never heard of maternity leave?” “I’m so happy I’m back on the internet,” he added. “I missed me so much.” The Old Town Road hitmaker followed this up with screenshots of what appear to be two new tracks from his sophomore record, titled Late to the Party (feat.
YoungBoy) and Down Souf Hoes (feat. Saucy Santana). Although fans are yet to hear the songs, Lil Nas X described the latter as “a strip club anthem” and confirmed to a fan that the songs are from his follow up to Montero, as opposed to a deluxe edition of his debut release. “Nah new album close to finished,” he stated before proceeding to tease a third track.
