Shaboozey Rides Again: Inside His Ambitious New Album

In his first-ever podcast interview, Shaboozey — who gave the decade one of its biggest crossover hits with “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” — joins Rolling Stone’s Nashville Now for a very special live podcast taping in Las Vegas. The episode arrives as part of a multimedia package with Shaboozey, including a digital cover story on RollingStone.com. Nashville Now host Joseph Hudak, who authored the cover story, captures Shaboozey at his most vulnerable. He gets tearful recounting his historic Grammy win, recounts growing up in Northern Virginia as the song of Nigerian immigrants, and shares the various inspirations — from Quentin Tarantino movies to Old West video games — for his ambitious forthcoming album, The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western tales. It’s a deeply personal interview with one of music’s most fascinating new stars, only on Nashville Now.   Country is Here… Nashville is Now.
