Background and composition

Shaboozey released "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" in April 2024. The song interpolates J-Kwon's 2004 single "Tipsy". [1] Lyrically, the song is about a narrator who is frustrated from hard work at his job, and takes out his frustrations by drinking alcohol at a bar. [2]

Commercial performance

"A Bar Song (Tipsy)" charted at number one on Billboard 's Hot Country Songs. As it succeeded Beyoncé's "Texas Hold 'Em" at the top, it made for the first time in history that two consecutive black artists held the number-one position there. [3] As well, this song made Shaboozey the first male black artist to chart at number one on Billboard's Hot 100 and Hot Country Songs charts at the same time; Beyoncé had previously become the first black artist to do this with her song “Texas Hold 'Em”.
