F[***] BET!” Those words are also the opening lines of the track, which Lil Nas X revealed is titled, “Late To Da Party” and features YB (aka YoungBoy, aka NBA YoungBoy).

Lil Nas X began blasting BET last week almost immediately after they failed to give him a single nomination for the 2022 BET Awards.

Alluding to the fact that his songs “Industry Baby” and “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” both hit #1 on the charts, and his album, Montero, debuted at the number 2 slot on the charts, Nas sent a follow up tweet, saying, “[I] feel like that should’ve helped me a bit.” READ MORE: Jack Harlow Says The Industry’s Reaction To Lil Nas X’s Queer Identity Shows There’s Still ‘Progress To Be Made’ Shortly after releasing the teaser of “Late To Da Party” on Tuesday, Nas began addressing questions and comments he was receiving about the track.
