AceShowbiz - Lil Nas X has caught wind of Dave Chappele's diss in his new Netflix special, "The Dreamer". The rapper/singer shared a perfect response after the comic made fun of his "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)" music video.
The 24-year-old offered his clapback via X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, January 3. Replying to a video of the comedian joking about the song and its MV, the Grammy winner wrote, "yall gotta let call me by your name go, me and the devil broke up 3 years ago. yall acting like children of divorce."
Hours later, Nas X let out a new post in which he boasted about his achievements. "I love this constant cycle the world has with me. when i started making music yall told me i was just another twitter rapper. then i made the biggest song of all time. yall called me a one hit wonder. then i dropped one the most streamed albums of the year with 3 top 5 hits. now yall saying my new s**t not finna do nothing. At some point yall gotta realize I am gods favorite," he declared. "1/12/24."
In "The Dreamer", Dave claimed Nas X walked up to him at a party and said that he wanted Dave in the visuals, which he didn't remember " 'What do you want to be when you grow up, Lil Nas X?' That n***a stood up in front of the whole class," the comic said.
" 'I want to be the gayest n***a that ever lived. I want to do a music video, slide down a stripper pole, all the way to the depths of hell, and suck the devil's d**l at ten o' clock on BET while all the kids are awake and can see me,' he continued. "Shockingly, that was the only dream that worked out."
In the new comedy special, Dave also continued making fun of trans people. He opened the set by telling a story about visiting the "Man on the Moon" set to meet Jim Carrey, saying, "I wanted to meet Jim Carrey [who was method acting], but I had to pretend this n***a was Andy Kaufman. All afternoon."
"I could look at him and I could see that he was Jim Carrey," the 50-year-old further noted. "Anyway, I say all that to say: That's how trans people make me feel."
