Nigerian music sensation Burna Boy and rising American-Nigerian country star Shaboozey were recently spotted collaborating in the studio, fueling excitement among fans eager to witness a cross-genre collaboration between these two powerhouse artists. Shaboozey, who has dominated the charts in 2024 with his smash hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” holding the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for multiple weeks, is one of the year’s biggest breakout stars. Meanwhile, Burna Boy, despite releasing only one single this year, “Higher,” which hit the peak of the TurnTable Top 100, has maintained a high profile with notable guest appearances. His contributions helped TiTom and Yuppe’s “Twala Bam” reach the top of the charts, and he also shined on Coldplay’s “We Pray” alongside Little Simz.
This sighting comes shortly after Burna Boy’s two-day “Headliners Only” concert, where he shared the stage with American-Senegalese music icon Akon and previewed a new track from his upcoming album, expected in 2025. Fans at the event also got an exclusive taste of another unreleased track, “Empty Chairs.” A collaboration with Shaboozey could further boost Burna Boy’s influence in the U.S., where his previous album, Love, Damini, recently became eligible for a RIAA Gold certification, marking another milestone for Nigerian music in America. Fans eagerly await what this new musical alliance could bring to the charts.
