The song is nominated for three Grammys, including song of the year, best country song and best country solo performance. Shaboozey also earned Grammy nominations for best new artist and best melodic rap performance for “Spaghetti,” one of his two collaborations on Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter.’

Shaboozey is also set to perform on Saturday Night Live as the musical guest on Dec. 7.
