"Old Town Road Sensation" Lil Nas X come out on Pride Day, becoming the highest-profile rapper to ever do so.
Not all the response was positive. Boosie Badazz, for example, made a homophobic joke at Nas X's expense and 50 Cent used him to taunt Young Buck.
Lil Nas X is taking it all in stride. Here's how he's reacting to the haters:
