Back in March, ‘Boozey skyrocketed to stardom after appearing on Beyoncé’s genre-disrupting Cowboy Carter album on the tracks “Spaghetti” and “Sweet * Honey * Buckiin.”
Legend has it that Bey heard his current single “A Bar Song (Tipsy)”–a country twist on J-Kwon’s 2004 hit–and was intrigued enough to work with him.
“Someone at Parkwood or in Beyoncé’s camp heard [“A Bar Song”] from me playing it live and was like, ‘We have to bring him in the studio,’” he recalled in an interview with Billboard. “Then the Beyoncé [album] came out, and we were like, ‘Oh, it’s time. Drop it.’”
The chart-dominating track recently extended its 12-week reign at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts and became Country’s biggest hit of the decade, globally–let’s take a shot of whiskey to that!

At this point, it’s Shaboozey’s world, we’re just yeehawin’ in it.
“I wanted to do something that represented where I was from,” he said in an interview with The Cut. “With Virginia being a southern state and having a lot of history, it just felt right to tap into those folk, Appalachian, and country roots.
I didn’t really start by picking up instruments; a lot of my childhood was about sports and school. But I had so many friends who played music at my high school, and after seeing everyone jamming out, I wanted to be involved in the fun thing. I learned pretty early that I was good from the reactions of friends and teachers. I had a lot of ideas. It made sense for me to just pick up an instrument and write my own songs, or start them, at least.”
