Lil Nas X has been honored with his own day in Atlanta for his musical achievements and impact on the LGBTQ community.

Mayoral candidate, Antonio Brown presented the ‘Industry Baby’ rapper with a proclamation plaque and delivered a speech recognizing the day as ‘Lil Nas X Day’ in the city of Atlanta. Mr. Brown who would become the first LGBTQ mayor of Atlanta said:

“He has made a considerable impact on the LGBTQ community by reshaping how society accepts LGBTQ artists within the music industry and empowering others to break barriers and be more open, expressive, and personal through music and art.  Lil Nas X, I just want to say, you inspire me. I’m running to be the mayor of Atlanta. I would be the first LGBTQ mayor in the history of the city, and you inspire me, allow me to believe I can do it. So, thank you”.

Taking to the stage, Lil Nas X said: “Thank you all for being here. This is incredible… I’m not going to cry. Shout out to Atlanta. I know a lot of you probably didn’t know I’m from Atlanta… I’m from the A. But seriously, this is amazing. I would not have imagined I would be here four years ago when I was at my sister’s house sleeping on the floor… This is incredible”.

“The Atlanta City Council is pleased to recognize Lil Nas X for his success in the world of music, entertainment, and popular culture. With the release of ‘Old Town Road,’ he achieved massive popularity in early 2019 and stayed atop the Billboard Hot 100 with a record-breaking 19-week run. He continued his success after debuting his 7 EP. The album has been streamed three billion times. He was nominated for six Grammys and won for Best Music Video and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance”.

It continues to note that his influence continues to grow, reaching phenomenal heights on platforms such as TikTok, where millions have made videos dancing to his hit songs.
