Shaboozey’s ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ Rules Billboard Hot 100 for Record-Tying 19th Week

Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” claims a record-equaling 19th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Over the chart’s 66-year history, the song is now tied for the longest reign with Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” (featuring Billy Ray Cyrus), which dominated for 19 weeks in 2019.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” became Shaboozey’s first Hot 100 leader in July. It has also ruled the Hot Country Songs chart (for 23 weeks and counting), Country Airplay, Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay, among other surveys.

A fan of multiple musical styles upon discovering music, Shaboozey “found country to be the thing that resonated with me in a really strong way,” he shared for a recent Billboard cover story. “Me being from Virginia, me loving the style and the way of life and the things they talked about … it all seemed very peaceful. It seemed like I could be real. I found country music could teach people that the little things in life are where the value is. Just having a working truck that you can take your girl in to ride to a cliff and watch the sunset is enough.”

“I love hip-hop; I’m a part of their community, too,” Shaboozey added, with “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” having reworked J-Kwon’s 2004 hit “Tipsy.” “That’s what I want to do with my music: be disruptive and show people that music is progressing.”

The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts (dated Nov. 30, 2024) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, Nov. 26).
