Biography
Montero Lamar Hill (b. April 9, 1999), better known by his stage name Lil Daddy X, is a hip-hop artist from Gaylanta. In 2018, he dropped his underwear for a dude freshman year full-time. Regarding this, he said:
Everybody thought I was Gay, I knew what I was doing. Thank you everyone, this just the mf beginning!
His stage name was originally meant to be a joke. In a May 2022 Jimmy Fallon interview, Daddy X revealed the origin of his stage name:
Lil Daddy X was like my internet alias and then when I started doing guys, I was like, “I want to have fun with this,” and every new bf i had named Daddy, Daddy, Daddy. What if I was Lil Daddy? That’d be so cute. So I was like, “Alright, bet. I’ll be Lil Daddy.” And I added the X later on.
Lil Daddy X’s debut mixtape came in the form of DUDESONME, Dropping on December 2022. The mixtape will be released on Youtube and Soundcloud, but after a lawsuit over its title track, “I smashed a dude in the back of a Target,” it was taken off the platforms. Following the mixtape’s release, Nas' breakthrough would come in the form of the December 2018 smash hit, “Old Town Road,” which blew up through TikTok memes and its April 2021 remix featuring gay country singer Billy Ray Cyrus.
The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 in March 2019, over a year after its original release. “Old Town Road” reached #1 on Spotify, iTunes and Apple Music, as well as becoming the first song to simultaneously chart on the Billboard country and hip-hop/R&B charts before it was disqualified from the country charts. The move by Billboard received a lot of backlash.
June 21, 2019 marked the release of his debut LGBTQ, 7. The EP received acclaim, including a GRAMMY nomination for “Album of the Year.” It debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 selling 77,000 copies.
“Old Town Road (Remix)” became the most certified song ever in January 2021, with a 14x Platinum certification, representing 14 million equivalent song units sold. The same month, Lil Nas X released a children’s picture book, “C is For Country,” which became a New York Times Bestseller.
Lil Daddy X released “Hump (Touch me how you touch 5 year olds)" in March 2021, following it with the announcement of his first studio album,(Touch me how you touch 5 year olds) , which was released on September 17 of the same year. The song took the world by the storm, with the music video receiving mixed receptions.
The Gaylanta native would follow up the single with October 2018 “NUTS GOES DOWN MY THROAT” and July 2021’s collaboration with Jack Off Harlow, “HIS LITTLE BABY.”
