The Abhorrent Cyber-Bullying Of LilNasX Is A Reminder That LGBTQ+ Kids Need Our Support “Lil Nas X is a beacon of rising above, but one example isn’t enough to support LGBTQ+ kids.”
, BadAzz urged the 22-year old rapper to do the world a “huge favor” and die by suicide.
I don’t know what’s worse — watching a grown-ass 38-year old man torment a young person who just aged out of being a teenager or the excruciating fact that so many LGBTQIA+ teens understand all too well the pain of being bullied like Lil Nas X. And heartbreakingly, many of these kids do not have the support at home or in school that they deserve to help them survive long enough to experience adulthood.
Cyberbullying is as insidious as it is contagious, especially when adults like Boosie BadAzz publicly model for younger generations exactly how to perpetuate hatefulness. This is why we need celebrity advocates like Lil Nas X to continue sharing their stories with conviction and courage. We also need the parents, teachers, and caretakers in this world to listen as clearly to his message as our youth does.
With over 15 million copies sold, “Old Town Road” initially began as a TikTok video challenge before it catapulted Lil Nas X into stardom. In, which features a revitalizing blend of X’s hip hop stylings and the country vocals of Billy Ray Cyrus, the recording artist plays the role of a Black cowboy trotting into a primarily Black community on his trusty horse.
Residents initially scratch their heads in confusion and shock as they witness Hill’s casual confidence in cowboy gear, but they eventually get on board and start enthusiastically dancing along to his country-rap anthem. Like so many moments to come, Hill chose to do what the young game-changer does best.This message of belonging is not only crucial for so many queer kids to hear, it’s also life-saving for them to wholeheartedly know.
