Lil Nas X Apologises Following Criticism of His ‘J Christ’ Single

In a comprehensive video, Lil Nas X responded to allegations suggesting he was deriding Christianity with his recent religion-themed single, “J Christ.” The artist, Nas, has faced criticism from onlookers.

Christian musicians, such as the Grammy-winning Gospel artist and rapper Lecrae, expressed disagreement with the promotion and visuals associated with the single, along with its corresponding music video.

“I didn’t mean it as a cannibalism thing or whatever the freak. But I do apologise for that. I will say I’m sorry for that. That was overboard,” Nas said. He added that he intended to “lighten the mood”
