At long last, the official "Old Town Road" music video has arrived, and it has everything we could have imagined: Billy Ray Cyrus, bank robbery, Diplo on the washboard, a game of Bingo, not-subtle Snapple ads, and glam cowboy outfits, to name a few.

The TikTok-beloved song is enjoying its seventh week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, where it's beaten out new songs from the likes of Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, and Justin Bieber. Not bad for a song that got booted from the country charts for not "embracing enough elements of today's country music," huh? Looks like Lil Nas X and his extremely powerful horse will get the last laugh.

The video also features cameos from Rico Nasty, Vince Staples, Chris Rock, and more. Yee -- and we can't stress this enough -- haw.
