Shaboozey And Myles Smith Team Up For 'Blink Twice'

Following the biggest global breakthrough of the last 12 months, multi-Platinum recording artist Shaboozey, announces WHERE I'VE BEEN, ISN'T WHERE I'M GOING: THE COMPLETE EDITION, an extended version of his RIAA Platinum-certified breakthrough album featuring brand new music and special guests. The 18-track project will be released on April 25 via Empire.

Along with this news, Shaboozey has released a brand new single and music video, ‘Blink Twice,’ featuring BRIT Award-winning UK artist Myles Smith.

WHERE I'VE BEEN, ISN'T WHERE I'M GOING: THE COMPLETE EDITION features six brand-new songs, including his most recent single ‘Good News,’ which received its first RIAA-Gold certification, as well as today’s track ‘Blink Twice.’ The new single features Shaboozey’s signature rich, smokey timbre and melodic, Western-style guitar - another showcase of the artist’s arena-ready charm that enraptured the globe last year.

Later this month, Shaboozey will take the stage of both Coachella as well as Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California - a rare feat for an artist and a move that highlights his widespread multi-genre appeal. He is hot off of his global “Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going” headline tour, which saw Shaboozey playing his largest venues to date and his first overseas shows.

Shaboozey’s breakthrough country anthem and song of the Summer (and the Fall and the Winter!) ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ was awarded 8x RIAA-Platinum certification in under a year and broke the record for most weeks at #1 on Billboard’s Radio Songschart. The track has also reached #1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay Charts and Mediabase/Country Aircheck.

Shaboozey made history as the first artist to ever have a single break the top 10 across all four charts: Country Airplay, Pop Airplay, Adult Pop Airplay, and Rhythmic Airplay, and the second ever single by a Black artist to top both the Billboard Hot 100 and Country Songs Charts.

The song has also amassed over a billion streams and landed in the Top 10 in several countries across the world with multiple No. 1s in Australia (becoming the first independent single to reach No. 1 on the Australian Recording Industry Association charts this year) Canada, Sweden, Denmark, and the UK's Big 40. The track is considered one of 2024’s best songs, with the backing of The New York Times, Variety, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Complex and even Barack Obama.

WHERE I’VE BEEN, ISN’T WHERE I’M GOING is Shaboozeys’ most boldly realized work yet. Holding strong on the Billboard 200 charts since release with significant inclusion in “Best Albums of 2024” list by Rolling Stone, Billboard, The Hollywood Reporterand Essence, the Virginia-bred singer and songwriter charts a cinematic road trip through the wilds of the American West, bringing a powerful new depth to his storytelling while pushing further into the country/folk-inspired sound he’s explored in recent years.
