Nasarati (mixtape)

Nasarati is the debut mixtape by Lil Nas X. It was self released via SoundCloud on July 24, 2018. Nasarati is a play on words, it is a mix of his rap name, Lil Nas X, and the name of car company Masarati. He first teased new music on his Instagram on July 15, 2018, saying:"'THANK U FOR 1,000 FOLLOWERS! NEW MUSIC ON YOUTUBE AND SOUNDCLOUD. LINK IN BIO.'"However, it was later removed from both his YouTube and SoundCloud page, and shortly afterwards, a 25 million dollar lawsuit was filed against Lil Nas X, producer Wynter, and Sony by The Music Force for opening track "Carry On" in response to an uncleared sample of Bobby Caldwell’s 1982 song of the same name, claiming he and the producer were "motivated by greed and malicious intent".
