Release and composition

[edit]

Shaboozey released "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" on April 12, 2024. The song interpolates J-Kwon's 2004 single "Tipsy".[3] 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 and having fun.[4]

"A Bar Song (Tipsy)" by Shaboozey is in the key of A Major with a tempo of 81 BPM, which can also be interpreted as 162 BPM in double-time. The song has a 4/4 time signature, indicating four beats per measure. The chord progression includes F♯m A D E,[5][6] which are used throughout the track. These elements define the song's harmonic and rhythmic structure.

There were also remixes released, from Swedish DJ Alesso and French DJ David Guetta.

Commercial performance

[edit]

"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.[7] 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 so with "Texas Hold 'Em".[8] The song also made Shaboozey the first male black artist to chart at number one on Billboard's Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts at the same time. In addition, it spent seven weeks at number one on the latter chart, surpassing the record for the longest-running number one debut single previously set by Carrie Underwood's "Jesus, Take the Wheel", which spent six weeks at the top in January–February 2006.[9] On the week of October 19, 2024, it spent a 20th week at number one on the Canadian Hot 100, breaking the record for the longest-running number one hit ever on the chart set by "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X featuring Billy Ray Cyrus in 2019.[10]
