When asked why no black male rappers are on the album, Lil Nas X also revealed that Ski Mask the Slump God was almost on the album, but he couldn't finish his verse by the time the album needed to be turned in. The track features Doja Cat.
Later on in the day, he also revealed that the reason he hasn't popped up on more features for other artistes is that he wants the moment to feel special when he does.
