Lil Nas X’s New Song Finds Himself Asking ‘Where Do We Go Now?’ After Taking The World By Storm

Lil Nas X has the world talking. His latest video, “J Christ” has been met with praise by fans, as well as controversy from Christian conservatives (as was expected). This weekend, the pop and hip-hop hitmaker is set to drop his documentary Long Live Montero, which will give fans a look at his rise to fame, coming out, and handling scrutiny from the public. Ahead of the documentary, Lil Nas X has shared a new song, “Where Do We Go Now?,” written just for the film.

On the song, which was produced by Omer Fedi and Blake Slatkin, Lil Nas X finds himself wondering what’s next. He’s had an impressive run as a gamechanger in the mainstream music landscape, however, seems to be grappling with the mixed emotions that come with fame.

“Where do we go now? / We’ve seen everything we had to see / We figured it out, my love / So where are we goin’? / So where do we go now? / We did everything so endlessly / And only to feel undone / So where are we goin’?,” he sings on the song’s chorus.

The song serves as a bridge between Lil Nas X’s debut Montero era, and the world he’s creating with his imminent second album.

You can listen to “Where Do We Go Now?” above.

Long Live Montero will be available for streaming on Max beginning 1/27.

Lil Nas X is keeping fans fed. Earlier this month, the hitmaker and provocateur made an epic comeback with his buzzy single “J Christ” — the video of which depicts him being crucified and making an ascension into heaven. But it appears his next single will be a bit more personal.

Today (January 23), Lil Nas X announced his upcoming single, “Where Do We Go Now?”

The song is set to arrive this Friday (January 26), as Lil Nas X revealed on his social media accounts.

“im dropping new music to match with your depression,” he said in the post’s caption.

There’s not much context regarding the subject matter thus far, however, the song’s artwork sees a drawing of Lil Nas X standing in a lush, green field, and holding hands with what looks like a younger version of himself. So, it’s likely that the song will showcase Lil Nas X’s more introspective side.

If it’s anything like his Montero cuts “Dead Right Now” and “Sun Goes Down,” fans are certainly in for a ballad that will tug at the heartstrings.

“Where Do We Go Now?” arrives in tandem with Lil Nas X’s documentary, Long Live Montero, which is set to premiere on Saturday, January 27 on Max.
