Lil Nas X hit yet another monumental milestone, and though this one's not as, uh, positive as past milestones, he's still celebrating with a tweet.
The 22-year-old rapper consistently slays the charts and captures hearts on Twitter, but now he's finally surpassed one million dislikes on a YouTube video for the first time. Congrats, king.
On Saturday, a fan account tweeted a screenshot of Lil Nas X's "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)" music video and announced that the video had surpassed one million dislikes.
"It becomes his first video on Youtube to reach this milestone. Congrats @LilNasX," the user wrote.
Staying true to his remarkably sassy, quick-witted Twitter persona, Lil Nas X quote tweeted the piece of news and wrote, "thank u to everyone who made this possible. i am nothing without you guys lack of support."
Iconic.

Lil Nas X has recently been making headlines because of his latest music video, "Industry Baby," which comments on his success and sexuality while taking viewers through a narrative set in the fictional Montero State Prison. Lil Nas X partnered with The Bail Project, a national nonprofit that seeks to end cash bail, ahead of the video's launch to raise funds to help financially assist those who are incarcerated.
But "Industry Baby" is only the rapper's latest video to receive backlash.
Prior to "Industry Baby," conservatives were outraged over the rapper's milestone-reaching "Montero (CMBYM)" music video, which features themes related to religion and sexuality. If you're unfamiliar with "Montero," it's the video that shows the rapper pole dancing his way to hell and giving the devil a lap dance. Here, see for yourself.
A controversial "Satan Shoes" collaboration with art brand MSCHF also accompanied the music video release, though the shoes have since been recalled after a lawsuit from Nike, which reached a settlement in April.
Lil Nas X stayed strong and committed to himself and the video's messaging during heavy "Montero (CMBYN)" backlash from religious conservatives, but the recent one million dislikes milestone shows that some people might not be ready to get over the video just yet.
Oh well. "Montero (CMBYN)" haters may think that one million dislikes is a damning number, but it's nowhere near as impressive a count as the 8.2 million likesthe music video has.
Looks like Lil Nas X won another round.
