Kevin Abstract has released a new song, “Tennessee,” featuring Lil Nas X. “Tennessee” is the first track from Abstract since his album Blanket, which released last year. The single saw its live debut in April during the second weekend of Coachella 2024, when Abstract welcomed Lil Nas X onto the stage as a surprise guest.
Now, the studio version of “Tennessee” has arrived in all its glory, along with a music video celebrating queer themes. Lyrically, the song describes the passion of a new love affair, with lines like “Never met someone like him/ Getting my reps in in the gym/ Skinny queen, I’m getting slim/ I’m the God of my life like a sim.”
Introducing “Tennessee” before its debut at Coachella, Abstract respected Lil Nas X, stating that he’s “very lucky to know him and to be existing at the same time as him.” This track is the first time the two have collaborated, but they seem to have been fans of each other for a while.
“Tennessee” describes life like the videogame The Sims when he says “I’m the God of my life like a sim”. This states that he’s always in control of what he does. This song isn’t afraid to get vulgar with lyrics like “Pussy eater, he like rice, huh / pussy lover, that my vice huh”.
