Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow brought “Dead Right Now,” “Montero (Call Me by Your Name),” and “Industry Baby” to the 2022 Grammys, performing their collaborative hit on the Las Vegas stage. Lil Nas X’s Grammy performance medley included a number of striking visuals, opening with Lil Nas X standing in a sparkling black cape as a drum line kept the beat behind him. A troupe of dancers outfitted in marching band costumes later joined the artist, along with Harlow.
At tonight’s show, Lil Nas X is looking to add to his pair of 2020 Grammys for the Billy Ray Cyrus version of “Old Town Road.” He is nominated for Album of the Year (for Montero) and Record of the Year ( for “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)”). The latter song is also up for Best Music Video.
As a featured artist, Harlow also stands to land his first ever Grammy if Montero wins Album of the Year.
