Lil Nas X took to Twitter to announce the release date of his new album Montero, which is due on September 17. The announcement came in the form of a pregnancy announcement-style photoshoot with Nas holding his swollen belly and dressed in all white. He even included a photoshopped ultrasound to really seal the deal.

Nas is known for pulling campy stunts to entertain his Gen Z audience and annoy the traditionalists of the internet. He’s well known for the beautifully CG-ed music video for his song “Call Me By Your Name,” where he gives a lap dance to Satan. Nas has also often experimented with fashion and gender identity.

Nas, whose exuberant personality is an important part of his branding, took to Twitter to engage with fans and provide lively debate with his opponents.
