Believe it or not, 20-year old Lil Nas X was not rolling in dough before his hit single ‘Old Town Road’ became popular.

According to his latest interview Lil Nas X said it is indeed true that he only had $5.62 in his Wells Fargo account before the fame.

The young artist even explained how he budgeted his low balance: “I spread it out…“I would get like, some Now or Laters every now and again and promote on Twitter.”
