BigXthaPlug has been teasing his forthcoming new album I Hope You’re Happy, set to release Aug. 22, and he’s upping the ante on anticipation for the project by teasing the upcoming single “Hell at Night,” a collaboration with Academy of Country Music Awards winner and “Weren’t For The Wind” singer-songwriter Ella Langley. BigXThaPlug issued a snippet of the song on his TikTok, adding the caption, “Ella Langley, you ready to give ’em hell?” (Langley also teased the collab on her TikTok).
The hip-hop and country hybrid track seems to take aim at someone who has done them wrong on lyrics such as “I hope you leave your car running at the store and it gets stole,” and “I hope you have a bad morning/ and one hell of a night.”
The forthcoming song and album follow BigXThaPlug’s recent Bailey Zimmerman collaboration “All The Way,” which reached No. 4 on Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100, and his collaboration with Shaboozey on “Home.”
In June, Shaboozey presented BigXthaPlug with the innovator of the year award during Billboard‘s Country Power Players event, held in Nashville.
BigXthaPlug previously made his debut Stagecoach Music Festival performance, alongside Shaboozey and Jelly Roll, and has made debut performances at Coachella, Dreamville Fest, Gov Ball and Jimmy Kimmel Live.
The rapper, writer and producer is known for songs including “Texas,” which reached No. 38 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop chart, and “Mmhmm,” which reached No. 11 on that same chart, as well as No. 63 on the Hot 100.
