Lil Nas X Makes History with CMA Win

So it looks like Lil X is still getting his shine on. Lil Nas X is around here making noise, still, with his song "Old Town Road." s finally being embraced for his country music talents. His song has been hitting hard on the Billboard charts for more than 17 weeks. But he has made history by becoming the first black gay male to win a CMA for Musical Event of the Year. Yes, he wont a country music award. Keep in mind though, he is not a country artist. Also, what's crazy is that a while back when the song was still pretty fresh, Lil Nas X was rejected by the genre, because his original version didn't embrace elements of today's country music. Remix that thing and he showed them!
