Lil Nas X closed out Pride month with some tweets that had people thinking he's made a declaration about his sexuality.

And he has.

A source close to the musician told CNN that with the posts and reference to his lyrics, Lil Nas X intended to share with his followers that he identifies as gay.

"Some of y'all already know, some of y'all don't care, some of y'all not gone fwm no more. but before this month ends i want y'all to listen closely to c7osure," the "Old Town Road" rapper tweeted Sunday in honor of the end of Pride month, including a rainbow emoji and others.

Is there really a rapper called Lil Nas X? That's the laziest rap name I've ever heard. Literally Nas with a "Lil X" around it what the fuck.

What were they? Considering that every single country that punishes homosexuality with death is Islamic I get the beef. Discriminating against an individual just based of being Muslim is a different story.

Why do people post this. Like his song old town rose was a pretty big success so regardless if you've heard of him he's still a big name right now. Though he'll probably be a one hit wonder

This is actually a pretty big deal. Nobody likes to talk about it, but homophobia is pretty common in the hip-hop community.

Yeah, and those days are over anyway. Their will always be assholes, but by and large (at least in the states) its the best time in history to be homosexual.

Though it really does get blown up. Tolerance is great, but at the same time its annoying to have someones sexuality celebrated like some miracle was witnessed.

Youre gay. Cool, whatever

I think he admitted that that was literally his thought process - he's young, he likes Nas and he added the "X" to distinguish himself from Nas.

A better time than ever to be gay really doesn't mean very much unfortunately. It's getting better, but it's a slow process and definitely still demonized in large parts of the country.

Actually, people do talk about it now. You're just not tuning into those people. I can't point to sources cause it's not something I remembered all the information about. I just took in that it was being addressed now. I don't think many rappers would recuse to work with a popular artist for being gay. It's business baby.

I don't know for sure, but I got the impression he was talking about a new song, not OTR.

Of course, "gonna riiiiiide til I can't no more" kinda jumps out at you.
