Lil Nas X finds himself the victim of a prank as a guest on The Eric André Show in a new clip for the upcoming sixth season. Released on Monday, (May 22) the short teaser finds the Grammy Award-winning musician in circumstances that leave him speechless.

Fully prepared to troll his way through the off-kilter talk show, the 24-year-old is bested by the comedic host. The almost two-minute video features an eerie monster, a drug-spraying microphone, and an increasingly confused chart-topping artist.

“I realized the hard way that the more violent a prank is doesn’t mean it’s necessarily better,” André explained to Rolling Stone of his brand of comedy. “It’s the premise of the prank that makes it funny.”

“It was great because he’s very sensitive, so he was easily affected by every prank we threw at him. He’s kind of the ideal guest,” the host added, describing his experience with the “Old Town Road” performer.

“He was very happy on the way out because he said something to us like, ‘This is my Oscar. It’s more important that I did this show in my life than win a Grammy or any award. This is a seminal moment in my life.’ But we ruined his outfit. We dropped this ice cream — it’s not clay — from the sky onto the desk and didn’t know it was going to drench him. It was very tense.”
