Lil Nas X knows how to make a statement.

Just hours after going viral after speaking out about Twitter's rebranding, the musician, 24, was spotted arriving at New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport. The Grammy winner stayed comfortable during his travel day by wearing an oversized pink and white hoodie with matching shorts.

The rapper wore the attire while leaving the hood of the sweater on his head and sporting earbuds. He topped off the look with a pair of tactical black boots.

Elon Musk has been focusing on product design & new technology for Twitter since stepping down as CEO in May. He first announced that the platform's logo would change to an "X" in a series of posts shared on the social media platform Saturday.

"And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds," he wrote in one post.

He added in another, "If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we'll make (it) go live worldwide tomorrow." A day later, he joked about his affinity for the letter "X," tweeting, “Not sure what subtle clues gave it [away], but I like the letter X,” alongside a photo of himself making an “X” with his arms in front of a wall covered in the letter.

After Musk's series of tweets, the "Old Town Road" singer shared in a post on the platform, "since i haven’t released music in 5 years and twitter pays you now. i am ready to accept my destiny as twitter supreme again."
