b'We live in an age of musical nostalgia where artists wear influences on their sleaves. Case in point, two established artists who are drawing from established pop music history: Lil Nas X\'s "J. Christ" sounds like a Kendrick Lamar "Humble" type beat, and Ariana Grande\'s "Yes, And?" unabashedly interpolates Madonna\'s "Vogue."
