About Shaboozey

Collins Obinna Chibueze (born May 9, 1995), known professionally as Shaboozey, is an American singer. His music combines country, Americana and hip-hop. After releasing two albums, Lady Wrangler (2018) and Cowboys Live Forever, Outlaws Never Die (2022), he gained wider recognition through his appearances on the soundtrack to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter (2024). His commercial breakthrough came with his third album, Where I've Been, Isn't Where I'm Going (2024), whose single "A Bar Song (Tipsy)", which spent nineteen weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100, tied with Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" as the then-longest running Hot 100 number one song of all time. The follow-up single "Good News" topped the US Country Airplay chart and became a top 15 hit on the Hot 100. In 2025, he collaborated with Jelly Roll on "Amen", which won the Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. Shaboozey has accumulated more than 1.3 million followers on Instagram and according to a few sources, he has developed a net worth of over $10 million USD due to his success in country and hip-hop music. In an interview with New Wave Magazine, Shaboozey spoke about his goals and aspirations to open a recording studio in Virginia, in hopes of helping to find talent in the Mid-Atlantic area. "When I was young, I knew I would be a storyteller, and would jump into creating worlds without fear. V Picture Films pays homage to my younger self and is a token reminder to keep that childhood dream alive," he told the publication. He has also received three Billboard Music Awards, two People's Choice Country Awards and two IHeartRadio Music Awards. In 2014, Shaboozey released his first single, "Jeff Gordon", referring to NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon.
