"Panini" is a song by American rapper Lil Nas X from his second EP 7 (2019). It was released as his second single through Columbia Records on June 20, 2019. "Panini" was written by Lil Nas X himself, alongside production duo Take a Daytrip (consisting of Denzel Baptiste and David Biral) and co-producer Dot da Genius. Late singer and Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain is also credited as a songwriter, due to the chorus containing an interpolation of the band's song "In Bloom", from their second studio album, Nevermind (1991). A remix featuring a guest appearance from American rapper DaBaby was released on September 13, 2019.

Upon its release, the song was positively received by music critics. Commercially, it charted number 5 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 2 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, and peaked at number 1 on the US Billboard Rhythmic chart.. The song also charted within the top 10 of four US charts and charts in Belgium, Canada, Greece, Latvia, and Lithuania. Mike Diva directed the "Panini" music video, starring Skai Jackson. Released on the 5th of September, 2019, it features her trying to outrun Lil Nas X and choreographed robots in a futuristic setting.
