I knew that a ton of people were upset about some of the things in the video, but I didn't realize that there was so much symbolism! Props Lil Nas X for being so artistic. Thanks for sharing!
Hearing all of the discussion of how people were upset with the content in the video, I watched it for myself. I honestly noticed some of the symbolism but was surprised to see them in this setting! Not to say that music videos need to match the song of course.
I love the symbolism in Lil Nas X's video and honestly love the controversey it brought about. It has made for really interesting conversations and reactions on social media. Also some really great memes lol.
I found this music video incredible by his use of symbolism. Of course, I can understand why there is controversy towards it however it was a true work of art in my own opinion.
The symbolism in this is astronomical. I love the latin references, especially "They condemn what they don't understand" because that really describes how Lil Nas X feels in regards to religion condemning gay people. The video mostly talked about the video referencing the industry and how you have to dance with the devil to get what you want but I think it goes beyond that. I think it is more about his sexuality and religion. Either way, this video is extremely controversial and a true work of art. -Megan B.
I have never seen this music video and the only part of the song I have listened to is the chorus, so listening to Ralph's reaction was truly an interesting experience. I don't know much about Lil Nas X, but the amount of time and dedication he put into the symbolism in the video is astounding! Regardless of your religious beliefs or thoughts on the video content and song itself, you have to applaud Lil Nas X's research and attention to detail here!
