Lil Nas X has released a video for his song MONTERO (Call me by your name) and the video has generated lots of comments on social media.

The video which as at the time of this report was released 7 hours ago has generated over a million views. The4 video shows Eve making out with the snake, a pole dancer seducing the devil, and a prisoner shackled by people in Regency-era wigs. Nearly everyone described just there is portrayed in the visual by Lil Nas X.

Lil Nas released a statement about the video, the statement is directed to his 14-year-old self, he wrote:

Dear 14-year-old Montero, I wrote a song with our name in it. It’s about a guy I met last summer. I know we promised to never come out publicly, I know we promised to never be “that” type of gay person, I know we promised to die with the secret, but this will open doors for many other queer people to simply exist. You see this is very scary for me, people will be angry, they will say I’m pushing an agenda. But the truth is, I am. The agenda to make people stay the fuck out of other people’s lives and stop dictating who they should be. Sending you love from the future.

Below are some reactions to the video:
