NAH HE TWEAKING

In today’s news of trends that lasted for a day… if your IG feed’s comment sections are flooded with “nah he tweaking” and you have no idea what to do with this, you’re not alone. The comment was initially left by Lil Nas X on an IG post reporting that Tony Hawk put out a limited edition of skateboards with his own blood infused (they sold out immediately). As you might remember, earlier  this year, when Lil Nas X collaborated with MSCHF and Nike and dropped "Satan Shoes" with a tiny drop of blood infused, he was met with backlash. Upon the popularity of Tony Hawk’s blood skateboard, Lil Nas X took to Twitter to ask: Maybe the issue wasn’t with the blood at all? Well, I guess no one, probably not even Lil Nas X, really expected his “nah he tweaking” comment to pop off like it did, and now the 22-year-old rapper is using this surge of (additional) popularity to promote his upcoming album MONTERO…as he should.
