Famous American country music star, Collins Obinna Chibueze, known professionally as Shaboozey, has declared that Nigeria would always be in his blood despite being born and raised in Virginia.

The singer while relishing his recent collaboration with Nigerian Afrobeats star Burna Boy on the track, ‘Change Your Mind’, stated that the song “feels like a homecoming” for him.

The ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ hitmaker noted that it was an honour for him to collaborate with an artist from his native country.

On his X handle, an elated Shaboozey wrote, “This one feels like a homecoming. Virginia raised me, but Nigeria will always be in my blood — now I get to share that with the world alongside my brother @burnaboy. ‘Change Your Mind’ drops tonight. Grateful, honored, and hope y’all love this song as much as we do!”

Shaboozey was born on 9 May, 1995, in Woodbridge, Virginia, to emigrant parents from Nigeria.

He began his music career in 2014 with the release of his first single, ‘Jeff Gordon’.

He gained global recognition after he was featured on two songs from Beyoncé’s 2024 album ‘Cowboy Carter’.

His hit song, ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ ties Lil Nas X’s ‘Old Town Road’ as the longest-running Hot 100 number one song of all time.
