“Old Town Road” had record-breaking staying power on the charts in part because of its remixes and guests. All of them and then some came out to perform with Lil Nas X at the Grammys.

Earlier in the day, Lil Nas X took home his first Grammy for music video, with collaborator Cyrus, director Calmatic and producers Candice Dragonas, Melissa Larsen and Saul Levitz.
