Lil Nas X Wins ‘WSJ’ Innovator Award, Praises Playboi Carti’s Creativity

Lil Nas X took a moment to praise Playboi Carti during the The Wall Street Journal‘s 2021 Innovator Awards red carpet, where he was named a recipient alongside the likes of Kim Kardashian, Lewis Hamilton and Ryan Reynolds.

When asked about the other artists he believes are also innovators, Nas X simply answered, “I’d say Playboi Carti.” He explained, “Me personally, I feel like he’s become like this huge rockstar in the rap realm.
