In a recording session, Lil Nas X came up with the lyrics "Call me when you want, call me when you need, call me in the morning", which led to producer Omer Fedi recording a guitar part, which was then done on banjo.
In early 2020, Lil Nas X asked the production duo to executively produce his debut album, and started recording ideas on his phone during COVID-19 lockdown. Take a Daytrip, who produced the song, described the process behind creating the song as serendipitous. However, with some people dismissing his success as a one-hit wonder, Lil Nas X wanted to depart from the country trap sound of "Old Town Road" when working on his debut album instead, he focused on rap, pop, and R&B, influenced by Drake and Nicki Minaj.
In 2019, Lil Nas X released " Old Town Road", a single that would go on to set a record for the longest-charting number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100. The song received nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Music Video at the 2022 Grammy Awards. Outside of the United States, "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)" topped the charts in 20 other countries including Canada, France, and the United Kingdom. It was certified platinum in the United States by the RIAA on April 22, 2021. "Montero (Call Me by Your Name)" debuted at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, giving Lil Nas X his second number-one hit on the chart after " Old Town Road". The song and video were praised by some liberal commentators for their boldly queer sensibilities, but were also the subject of backlash from a number of conservative figures in the United States who deemed the content immoral or harmful to children. The camp, sexually charged music video for the song depicts Lil Nas X in a number of biblically-inspired scenes, including the artist riding a stripper pole to Hell, and giving a lap dance to Satan. The song is noted for its queer themes, including its sexually explicit homosexual lyrics, taking its name from the 2007 book Call Me by Your Name which centers on a gay romance.
It was written by Lil Nas X along with its producers, Take a Daytrip, Omer Fedi, and Roy Lenzo. First previewed in a Super Bowl LV commercial in February 2021, the song was released on March 26, 2021, through Columbia Records, as the lead single and title track from his debut studio album of the same name.
