Whether country fans like it or not, “Old Town Road” is the biggest song nationwide, and across ALL AGES. Last week, a video went viral of students at Lander Elementary in Mayfield Heights rocking out to “Old Town Road” and naturally grabbed the attention of the hip-hop rapper, Lil Nas.

He saw the video and responded on Twitter to see when the students wanted him to stop by for a free show!

I love my job. We ended our 5th grade talent show today with the whole school dancing and celebrating…together!! #LanderLove @LanderElem @LilNasX pic.twitter.com/pzS1id79mu

The kids are CLEARLY nothing but EXCITED. School administrators even thanked Lil Nas Xfor an unforgettable experience and “making a great memory for the kids.”
