Lil Nas X‘s stock continues to rise.

After breaking down the industry doors and experiencing a meteoric ascension with the success of “Old Town Road,” the young Atlanta talent will be releasing his debut EP, 7, at the stroke of midnight.

But first, Lil Nas X has shared a second single–releasing a song called “Panini” to the masses, which includes an interpolation of Nirvana’s “In Bloom.”

“The craziest thing about ‘Panini’ is it introduced me to Nirvana’s album Nevermind,” he told Zane Lowe. “It’s like I always seen the cover but I never actually listened to it. And people was like, ‘wow he sampled Nirvana.’ I was like, ‘no. It’s like I didn’t realize I was using almost the exact same melody.’ I’ve been listening to it a lot lately actually.”
