Old Town Road is so revolutionary, it skipped right over having a music video and instead has a music movie. It starts in 1889 with Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus taking shelter after their last successful bank robbery. When they’re chased off by a cowboy, Lil Nas X accidentally dives down a wormhole and arrives in 2019. Confused by modern day streets, Lil Nas X eventually joins up with Chris Rock and Billy Ray Cyrus and they go to a Western-themed bingo hall.
The 5-minute movie is every bit as fun as the song, and really brings the latter to life. In a similar fashion to the movie, when Lil Nas X originally uploaded the song, he set the song to footage of his character in Red Dead Redemption 2.
