Lil Nas X will be honored at the long-awaited 51 st annual Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala next month with the Hal David Starlight Award, which recognizes “gifted young songwriters who are making a significant impact in the music industry via their original songs.”

Quote

SHOF chair Nile Rodgers commented, “Lil Nas X is someone we are very proud to award the Hal David Starlight Award to. He has perhaps better than anyone demonstrated how powerful great songs are, with ‘Old Town Road’ and ‘Montero’ dominating the charts for almost every day of the last three years. If you’re lucky enough to be alive at this time, you know exactly who Lil Nas X is and he’s an incredible and inspirational person for every one of his communities as well.”

Some more insight into his songwriting, from one of his main producers:

Quote

We’ll usually be on keyboards jamming while he does melody runs on the microphone,” Roy explains. “He likes to pick out the structure, the hook, pre-chorus and verse. From there, we’ll try a bunch of tones, sounds and layers. It’s fascinating, he has an incredible ear and timing. We’ll be working on something and he’ll notice a high hat might be moved. He’s incredibly meticulous.
