This is how you level up!!!

Earlier this week Lil Nas X’s country trap song “Old Town Road” was removed from the Billboard charts after they decided they didn’t consider it as a country song.

Billy Ray posted a screenshot to his Instagram via @chartdata that stated that, had Lil Nas X’s track NOT been removed, it wouldn’t have hit #1 on the Billboard country chart.

@lilnasx Been watching everything going on with OTR. When I got thrown off the charts, Waylon Jennings said to me “Take this as a compliment” means you’re doing something great! Only Outlaws are outlawed. Welcome to the club!

Regardless of if you think it classifies as country this song slaps! We hope for Lil Nas’s sake he’s able to get the recognition he deserves soon and hopefully securing this feature does just that! Stream “Old Town Road Remix” below:
