About Shaboozey

Drawing from a kaleidoscope of musical genres and pop-culture influences, Virginia rapper Shaboozey makes music that’s highly stylized yet authentic. • Shaboozey was raised outside of Washington, D.C., in Fairfax, Virginia, by Nigerian parents. His moniker is a play on mispronunciations of his last name. He goes by “Boozey” for short. • He regularly titles his songs after pop-culture figures. Noteworthy examples include his 2014 breakthrough “Jeff Gordon”, the Led Zeppelin–sampling “Robert Plant”, and “Joan Jett”. • In addition to rapping, singing, and producing, Shaboozey is a filmmaker and a writer. • On the strength of his self-recorded songs, including the boisterous “Jeff Gordon” and the trap-inspired “Starfoxx”, Shaboozey landed a deal with Republic Records in 2017. • Shaboozey and his Republic labelmate Duckwrth partnered on “Start a Riot”, from 2018’s Grammy-nominated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack. • In late 2018, Shaboozey released his debut project, Lady Wrangler. The multi-genre LP includes the slow and melodic single “Winning Streak”, which surpassed 10 million streams.
