“A Bar Song (Tipsy)”– which inserts J-Kwon’s 2004 hit “Tipsy” — simultaneously scratches a 4th week atop the Hot Country Songs graph. No tune by a Black male, or one recognized to be biracial, had actually formerly covered both graphes. He is the 2nd Black musician total to accomplish the accomplishment– adhering to Beyonc é with “Texas Hold ‘Em.”
Shaboozey was included on Bey’s Cowboy Carter cd previously this year, on “SPAGHETTII” and “SWEET HONEY BUCKIIN’.” He informed Billboard back in May: “What I loved about [the] Beyoncé album is the inspiration and the influence that she had are probably the same as mine. We’re studying the same things.”

He included of the ideas behind“A Bar Song,” “I had been wanting to flip a 2000s song for a while. I just said, ‘Everybody at the bar getting tipsy,’ and then we were like, ‘Oh, sh-t!’ The producer picked up the guitar and started playing the chords, and then we started writing, just having fun and being creative.”
