Lil Nas X broke onto the scene taking his horse to the “Old Town Road” with Billy Ray Cyrus…

After making a splash with his own hits, Lil Nas X got the seal of approval for his recent cover of Dolly Parton‘s classic song “Jolene”…by Dolly herself!

When the country music icon heard the young singer’s take on her seminal number-one hit, Dolly shared, “I was so excited when someone told me that Lil Nas X had done my song ‘Jolene’. I had to find it and listen to it immediately…and it’s really good. Of course, I love him anyway. I was surprised and I’m honored and flattered. I hope he does good for both of us. Thank you Lil Nas X”
