In its 11th consecutive week at No.
I on the list of songs that spent the most consecutive weeks atop the chart.
Those songs still get burn today.
Theyre etched into the history of popular culture.
Maybe in the future, well remember Old Town Road as a bright spot in strange times.
This feat is doubly impressive because Old Town Road is Atlanta rapper Lil Nas Xs first official single.
Boone got lost in the shuffle trying to juggle pop, rock, country, and sentimental ballads.
(7actually features eight songs; its bookended by two versions of the hit single.)
Panini and Rodeo are highlights.
The former floats on tuneful whistles assisted by bubbly synths from Mo Bamba production duo Take A Daytrip.
(Panini actually interpolates Nirvana, but only by accident.)
Kid CudisWZRDera is actually a solid parallel for what Lil Nas X achieves with7.
The lyrics are slight, and the concepts are silly.
F9mily drowns its couples-therapy conceit in cliches and Hallmark rhymes.
It doesnt tell you much about the guy who made it.
The most compelling ones this EP summons are cowboys and cartoon characters.
