Shaboozey Broadcasts the ‘Good News’ With New Single: Stream It Now

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” may still be riding high atop the Billboard Hot 100, but Shaboozey has more “Good News” to share.

On Friday (Nov. 15), the country breakout star dropped “Good News,” his first new single since the release of his Billboard chart-topping Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going LP. Once again joining forces with long-time collaborators Nevin Sastry and Sean Cook, Shaboozey uses his next single to explore how good news can turn around even the darkest of sorrows. “I need some good news/ Sittin’ here, sippin’ on cold truth/ Nobody knows what I’m goin’ through/ Bet the devil wouldn’t walk in my shoes,” he croons over gentle acoustic guitar, plaintive fiddle and a healthy dose of pedal steel guitar.

2024 has been a life-changing year for Shaboozey, who hails from just outside Woodbridge, Va. At the top of the year, he featured on a pair of songs on Beyoncé‘s Billboard 200-topping Cowboy Carter album: “Sweet * Honey * Buckiin'” (No. 61) and “Spaghettii” (No. 31, with Linda Martell), which earned a 2025 Grammy nomination for best melodic rap performance. In addition to that nod, Shaboozey picked up four other nominations. “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is up for song of the year, best country song and best country solo performance, while Shaboozey himself reaped a bid for best new artist.

“Tipsy” was one of several singles from Where I’ve Been, which reached No. 1 on Folk Albums and Independent Albums. On the Billboard 200, the record peaked at No. 5.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” has spent a whopping 17 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100, making it the longest-running solo No. 1 on the ranking. Only one song stands between Shaboozey and the all-time record: Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus’ “Old Town Road,” which spent 19 consecutive weeks atop the chart.
