Twitter Users Cancel Lil Nas X After His Alleged Old Islamophobic Tweets Surface

*Over the weekend, Lil Nas X had it popping on Twitter when he became a trending topic over offensive tweets that he may or may not have posted before becoming super star artist.

According to Perez Hilton, the hashtag #LilNasXIsOverParty was driving conversation across social media after old tweets belonging to a Nicki Minaj stan account was  linked to the rapper — even though he denies ever being associated with the formerly popular @NasMaraj Twitter page.

The account in question previously posted several pearl-clutching weets — including several that were Islamophobic in nature — see the post below.

The Atlanta-native attempted to distance himself from the drama but Twitter sleuths called him out and came with receipts in the form of screenshots of the old tweets — and this is how #LilNasXisOverParty was birthed on Twitter — see post below:

Critics even noted how @NasMaraj previously criticized Cardi B… only for Lil Nas X to turn around and do a new single with the “Money” rapper (below):

Eventually, the hip-hop star joined in on his own roasting by posting a meme of Squidward Tentacles begging for change, along with the caption: “me after getting cancelled” (see below).

One Twitter user summed up the controversy with the following post: 

LilNas:

-Pretends to be straight to keep his fame going
-Has made islamaphobic remarks
-Got famous and denied ever being a barb & even liked a comment calling nicki trash
-Performed with Cardi B after dragging her on Twitter when he was a stan

THIS MAN IS A FRAUD
