About this sound

Old Town Road is the viral country rap hook by Lil Nas X, heard here as a short clip people use for cowboy memes, horse edits and western jokes online.

This clip captures the instantly recognisable chorus hook from Old Town Road, with its twangy banjo loop, deep bass and laid back vocal delivery blending country and trap. The singer rides the beat with a confident, playful swagger about horses, boots and the open road, making the excerpt feel both nostalgic and meme ready. Even a few seconds are enough for listeners to identify the song, and the contrast between western imagery and modern hip hop production gives edits a funny, unexpected lift that lands immediately with viewers who know the track.

Pro tip

Drop the hook right as a character mounts a horse, puts on a cowboy hat or struts in boots for the reveal. Keep the banjo intro clean, trim any lead in silence, and avoid burying the vocal under dialogue or extra music.

How people use it

More information

Old Town Road was released by American artist Lil Nas X in December 2018 and exploded on TikTok in early 2019 through the Yeehaw Challenge, where users transformed into cowboy outfits as the beat dropped. A remix featuring Billy Ray Cyrus pushed it to a record breaking run at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Its mix of banjo sampling, trap drums and simple singalong lyrics made short clips easy to reuse, and the sound remains a shorthand for cowboy humour, horse videos and confident western entrances online.
