Lil Nas X, the boundary-pushing singer and rapper, is back in the spotlight with his controversial new single, ‘J Christ,‘ earning an unexpected endorsement from the Church Of Satan. The release of the track last week stirred a pot of both acclaim and criticism, primarily fueled by its provocative cover artwork featuring Lil Nas X on a crucifix, lifted by five bystanders.
The accompanying music video took the controversy a step further, featuring impersonators of notable figures such as Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Ed Sheeran, Oprah Winfrey, and Barack Obama in a gospel choir setting, chanting, “Oh lord please/ Deliver us/ Deliver me.”
In an exclusive interview with TMZ, David Harris, the leader of the Church Of Satan, shared his perspective on Lil Nas X’s latest artistic venture. Unapologetically, Harris described the track and its visually striking video as nothing short of “fantastic.” This endorsement echoes the organization’s previous backing of Lil Nas X in 2021 when he faced backlash over the release of “Satan Shoes” – limited edition sneakers containing a drop of real human blood.

As the ‘J Christ’ controversy continues to reverberate through both musical and religious circles, Lil Nas X remains at the forefront, unyielding in his commitment to artistic expression that challenges, captivates, and, in this case, receives a nod from an unlikely source – the Church Of Satan.
