Rodeo (Lil Nas X and Cardi B song)

Rodeo is a song created by American recording artists Lil Nas X and Cardi B from the former's debut EP 7 (2019). It was written by Montero Hill and Belcalis Almánzar, alongside Take A Daytrip's David Biral and Denzel Baptiste, Roy Lenzo, and Russ Chell, who produced the song. Musically, "Rodeo" is a country trap song with surf trumpet and a reverbed staccato guitar riff, which has been compared to Heart's "Barracuda" (1977). The song received mixed reviews from music critics, who praised Cardi B's verse. It debuted at number 22 on the US Billboard Hot 100, reaching charts in a few other territories. Lil Nas X and Cardi B were sued by Don Lee and Glen Keith DeMeritt III, who claimed that "Rodeo" plagiarized a song they produced called "Broad Day" (2017). A remix of the song with American rapper Nas was released to streaming services on January 30, 2020, making it a single. A lyric video and audio was published on YouTube and SoundCloud three days before. The remix was performed by Lil Nas X and Nas one day before at the 2020 Grammy Awards on January 26, 2020 alongside "Old Town Road".
