While answering fan’s questions on Twitter, Lil Nas X revealed that he wanted Lady Gaga to be on his new album, Montero. It didn’t happen because he didn’t finish writing the song, so he never sent it to her.
He was also hoping to have Nicki Minaj record “Industry Baby” with him. He tried contacting Minaj, but he never got a response back from her.
He then recorded it with Jack Harlow and the song ended up charting at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
He also revealed that later in the year, he plans to release “Empathy,” an unreleased collaboration with Sam Smith.
TL;DR:
- He wanted Nicki Minaj to record “Industry Baby” but he never got a response back from her.
- He wanted Lady Gaga but he didn’t finish writing the song, so he never sent it to her.
