About

Shaboozey is a genre-defying artist who seamlessly blends country, hip-hop, and soul into a sound that feels both timeless and refreshingly modern. With a voice that carries the grit of the American South and the swagger of a hip-hop storyteller, Shaboozey has carved out a niche that defies easy categorization. His music is a melting pot of influences, from the outlaw country of Johnny Cash to the rhythmic cadences of OutKast, creating a soundscape that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Emerging from Virginia, Shaboozey first gained attention with his 2018 debut album *Lady Wrangler*, which showcased his ability to weave vivid narratives with a Southern Gothic flair. His breakthrough came with the viral success of tracks like "Start A Riot" from the *Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse* soundtrack, which introduced his unique style to a global audience. Since then, he has continued to push boundaries, collaborating with artists like Duckwrth and JID, and earning acclaim for his genre-blurring approach. Shaboozey’s cultural impact lies in his ability to bridge worlds—country and hip-hop, tradition and innovation. His music speaks to a generation that refuses to be boxed in, and his aesthetic, often characterized by cowboy hats and denim, has become a signature look. Recently, he has been working on new material that promises to further cement his place as one of music’s most exciting boundary-pushers.
