Though he went home empty-handed, Shaboozey had a heckuva night at the 2025 Grammy Awards on Sunday (Feb. 2), where he performed a medley of his hits alongside the other best new artist nominees.

When Billboard caught up with the “Good News” singer backstage after the ceremony — where he was up for five awards — and asked him what his plans were for following up his 19-week Hot 100 No. 1 smash “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” Shaboozey said one of the items on his to-do list is a team-up with another country chart superstar.


“Stuff’s comin’, man, stuff’s comin’,” Shaboozey said about a potential collaboration with pal Morgan Wallen. “He shot me a text the other day and it’s just good that he’s doing good, taking care of himself, putting out some new music that I feel the world is excited about… and ready for.”

As for his next iteration, Shaboozey said he can’t wait for fans to hear what the follow-up to his breakthrough 2024 album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going. “I’m so excited about it [my upcoming music]. I feel like I’m now coming into my own,” he said. “This [Grammy Awards] is just an extra treat on top of everything I’ve done so far in my career. I can’t wait to keep it going.”

Shaboozey also said that being nominated in the “big four” Grammy categories — including song of the year and best new artist — was “amazing. Honestly, to be in the big four after just one year of really figuring out the type of music I wanted to make, the sound I wanted to get, the type of songs I wanted to write?” he said. “It’s amazing and honestly I hope that I keep coming and this isn’t just the only year I get to do this.”

Musicians’ Unions Back The Boss After Trump Dumps On Bruce Springsteen Again: ‘We Stand in Complete Solidarity With Bruce’

The president called the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend a "bad and very boring singer" while accusing Springsteen of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome" in a post on Tuesday (April 2).

The war of words between Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump cranked up another notch on Thursday (April 2) when Dan Point, the president of the Local 802 American Federation of Musicians and Local 47 AFM president Marc Sazer lashed out at the president for his latest broadside against the Boss.

“We can not remain silent as one of our most celebrated members is singled out and personally attacked by the President of the United States,” the union presidents said in a joint statement following a post on Trump’s Truth Social in which the president again took aim at the rock icon for speaking out against his administration. “Bruce Springsteen is not just a brilliant musician, he is a voice for working people, a symbol of American resilience, and an inspiration to millions in this country and around the world.”
