Lil Nas X just confirmed that he and Taylor Swift almost teamed up for a song—but, plot twist, it didn’t happen.
The 25-year-old rapper spilled the tea, explaining that he and the Queen of Easter Egg Clues™ were in the early stages of working on something magical… until he realized the vibe just wasn’t vibing.
“We were working on something. She offered to let me try a verse on it, but I just couldn’t catch a vibe,” he told E! News, probably while looking effortlessly cool. “So it didn’t happen.”
The Industry Baby hitmaker didn’t reveal much about what could’ve been the most unexpected duo since peanut butter and pickles, but he made one thing clear: he’s still grateful for the offer.
“I don’t even wanna talk about it,” he said, probably mourning the lost opportunity to be part of Swiftie history. “I’m thankful that she even considered me.”
So, in an alternate timeline, we could’ve had a Lil Nas X x Taylor Swift song that shattered the internet. But alas, some things just aren’t meant to be—like my New Year’s resolution to stop ordering DoorDash at midnight.
