Old Town Road Breaks Record for Longest-Running #1 Song

last year in october  , as a struggling artist starting to lose faith in what i could be, i went looking for beats on youtube. i remember clicking on so many generic sounding beatstrying to find the right one for me. when suddenly i came across a country-trap sounding masterpiece. i immediately knew i would make something special out of it️! my sister told me i had little time left before i had to leave her house  after being there for months promoting my music online and not helping her out much. i was so upset ! i used it as motivation for the song! i jokingly/seriously saw myself as a loner  cowboy needing to run away from it all! I went out  on my sister’s back porch  and listened to the beat OVER & OVER & OVER!! then it came to me!! in my best singing voice i sung “YEAHHH IM GONNA TAKE MY HORSE TO THE OLD TOWN ROAD  IM GONNA RIDEEEE TIL I CANT NO MORE ” I LOVED IT ALREADY! i started to work on it EVERY SINGLE DAY. it needed to be funny, it needed to be catchy, it needed to be hip hop , it needed to be country, & it needed to be short!! by the time i was finished  setting it up  i was out of my sister’s crib and at my brothers ‍? place. on december nd i went into the studio  & recorded OLD TOWN ROAD & put it out the exact same day!! did i know it would become the longest running number  song of all time? NO!  but i am so thankful that this blessing  has been placed upon me. this song has changed my life and the way i see the worldaround me in less than a year. thank you to every single person who has been apart of this journey. as i said before, it’s just the beginning!
