Shaboozey’s love for Beyoncé is on Esthen Exchangetop, but he may have just found his next duet partner.

After the “Bar Song (Tipsy)” artist was featured on not one but two tracks on Queen Bey’s Cowboy Carter—“Spaghetti” and “Sweet Honey Buckiin,’”—he's not slowing down any time soon. In fact, he recently detailed why Usher would be his choice for his next collaboration project. 

“If Usher come through here tell him to reach out to Shaboozey,” the 29-year-old told E! News’ Francesca Amiker on the red carpet at the 2024 BET Awards after she suggested he collab with newest BET Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. “We can make a crazy little Country/R&B song. Hey, He would do really well doing it—He’s from Atlanta." (See all the stars who hit the 2024 BET Awards red carpet here).

And when Francesca wondered if there was anyone else on his collaboration wish list, he was still saying yeah to her previous suggestion. 

“Now he’s the one I’m thinking about,” the rapper said of Usher before joking their upcoming song together was “coming.”

Of course, Shaboozey—who wore a beige suit with ruching around the waist paired with a bolo tie—couldn’t head into the ceremony at Peacock Theater in Los Angeles without detailing his Billboard’s Hot Country 100 hits and what the accolades mean to him.

“When I saw artists and individuals who had achieved so much for me it was like, ‘I want to stand next to those people,’” he added. “They inspire me so much but I just wanted to be able to stand next to them as well and leave an imprint on things and on history.”

And while Shaboozey has had hits of his own, he couldn’t thank the “Cuff It” singer enough for the opportunity to be featured on her latest album. 

“It’s amazing,” he gushed. “Thank her so much for giving me that boost and putting me on the album.”

And he continues to be in awe of her work ethic. “She’s got a great team of people who are working around the clock to make sure that whatever comes out is the best it can possibly be,” he expressed. “That inspires me to this day.”
