Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” has skyrocketed to the number one spot on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart, edging out Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em” after its 10-week reign. This marks a historic moment as two Black artists consecutively top the chart for the first time since its inception in 1958.

The infectious track, which pays homage to J-Kwon’s 2004 hit “Tipsy,” has seen a surge in popularity with a 95% increase in official U.S. streams, a 1,202% rise in radio airplay audience impressions, and a 48% jump in sales during the week of April 19-25.

Shaboozey, born Collins Obinna Chibueze and hailing from Virginia, is no stranger to success. He is featured on Beyoncé’s album Cowboy Carter, contributing to tracks like “Spaghettii” and “Sweet * Honey * Buckiin’,” which continue to dominate the charts. In a recent interview with Billboard, Shaboozey expressed his gratitude for being a part of such a groundbreaking project, stating, “It’s amazing to be a part of that powerhouse of an artist.”

Furthermore, Shaboozey’s rise to fame doesn’t stop there.
