January eighth, 2020. I’m about to eat some f**king pizza. A year ago, I put out ‘Old Town Road’. It did pretty f**king good. I’m at five million on Instagram, eight million on YouTube, around 30 million Spotify listeners. It’s been a year, and I just want to give a big thank you to everybody who’s helped me get to where I am. And I’ll be back with you guys…10 years from now! We’ll see where I’m at.”
