Lil Nas X finally dropped his much-awaited single called ‘Industry Baby’ which also features Jack Harlow. The track has been produced by Kanye West, who has his own album ‘Donda’ dropping on Friday, July 23.

The ‘Old Town Road (Remix)’ hitmaker’s latest single is a follow up to his recent single called ‘MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)’ which he had also performed at the recent BET Awards 2021.  The controversial crooner quickly grabbed a spot on Twitter’s trending list as social media users could not get enough of the music video where Lil Nas X gets butt naked.

Lil Nas X drops 'Industry Baby' MV featuring Jack Harlow

The official music video of ‘Industry Baby’ helmed by Christian Breslauer starts where the song teaser had ended. In the video, we could see Nas X getting jailed for five years at Montero State Prison. The shots then show us the rapper baring it all while dancing to the song. We also see him lifting weights while rocking a bright pint jumpsuit along with him dancing in the shower with other inmates. Lil Nas X tries to escape from the jail after Harlow slips a small pickaxe to aid an escape. Fans can stream the audio here.
 
If we talk about the lyrics, Nas X addresses him being gay, singing, “Uh, need to, uh, Need to get this album done/ Need a couple numbеr ones/  Need a plaque on evеry song, Need me like one with Nicki now/ Tell a rap - I don't see ya, hah/ I'm a pop - like Bieber, hah/ I don't f**k bitches, I'm queer, hah.” Harlow hops on his rap verse in the second half of the song spitting, “My track record so clean, they couldn't wait to just bash me/ I must be gettin' too flashy, y'all shouldn't have let the world gas me (Woo)/ It's too late 'cause I'm here to stay and these girls know that I'm nasty (Mm)/ I sent her back to her boyfriend with my handprint on her a** cheek/ City talkin', we takin' notes, Tell 'em all to keep makin' posts, wish he could, but he can't get close.” .” In the snippet earlier shared by Nas X, the rapper had trolled his infamous ‘Satan Shoes’ controversy by taking it to the court. The singer had joined hands with MSCHF in March to drop limited-edition pair of Nike Air Max 97s called ‘Satan Shoes’. The award-winning singer was in a soup after it was alleged that his Nike ‘Satan Shoes’ came with a drop of real human blood and 60 CCs of red ink in the soles.
