Shaboozey Shows He Isn’t Stunting Joke Made At CMA Awards

Microaggressions tossed at Shaboozey at CMA Awards.

The “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” singer caught wind of a joke made by producer Trent Willmon incorporating Shaboozey’s name. Willmon joined artist Cody Johnson on stage while accepting the award for album of the year. “I got to tell ya, this is for this cowboy who has been kicking Shaboozey for a lot of years, Cody Johnson,” Willmon said, as Johnson put his head down. 

After catching wind of the comment, Shaboozey,  whose real name is Collins Obinna Chibueze, took to X to remind the producer and fans that, “Ain’t nobody kicking me!”

As Willmon hasn’t responded about the context of the random joke, social media immediately jumped to Shaboozey’s defense, labeling the comment as confusing and in bad taste. “I’ve been searching the comments trying to find out what he even means by ‘kicking shaboozeys for a lot of years’  but haven’t found anything,” @withonewing said.

Another user wasn’t upset that the producer said something but noted that he could “have said anything… but chose disrespect.”

He is also up for the category of best melodic rap performance for “Spaghettii,” in which he collaborated with fellow CMA snubbed artist, Beyoncé on her country album, Cowboy Carter.
