One prediction market prices this story:

  • Lil Nas X — resolved “Yes” on 21 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Lil Nas X releases a new song in 2026. It resolves to No if he does not release a new song during that year. Readers often mistake the linked news story as the resolution event, but only a full song release in 2026 counts.
