's "One Sweet Day." But just how did Lil Nas X’s hit song come together? In the latest episode of “How It Went Down,” he explains how a summer home from college resulted in the groundbreaking mash-up of hip-hop, country and “funny meme culture" that we know today.that the summer he wrote “Old Town Road,” he was back from his first year of college.
After a while, though, Lil Nas X explains that his sister became “fed up” with him staying with her, leaving him questioning what his next move was -- a sentiment reflected in “Old Town Road.” Lil Nas X adds that with the song, he wanted to bring together “funny meme culture” with hip-hip and country music. “Let's put all that into one, ball it up,” he recalls thinking. “Let's make sure this song is short, to the point. And it sounds amazing, but it's also funny… It's like a country spin on classical rap tropes within this generation.”
