Hold onto your hats, y’all—Quavo has traded in his designer drip for something with a little more twang. The Grammy-nominated hip-hop heavyweight has joined forces with five-time Entertainer of the Year and country superstar Luke Bryan, alongside soul-drenched crooner Teddy Swims, for a track that screams Southern pride. Their new single, “Georgia Ways,” dropped today via Quality Control Music/Motown Records, and it’s got everyone buzzing.
This unexpected powerhouse collaboration arrives on the heels of Quavo being crowned this year’s Variety Hitmakers Humanitarian of the Year for his work with the Rocket Foundation, tackling gun violence across the U.S. With a mix of their Southern swagger and a whole lot of heart, the three Georgia boys dive deep into their roots, paying homage to the Peach State that shaped them into the icons they are today.
And the rollout? Big. “Georgia Ways” hit the airwaves with a full-court press, debuting on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop, CMT Music, and even Paramount’s iconic Times Square billboards. The music video, directed by Wyatt Spain, is just as down-home as the track itself, whisking viewers away to Georgia’s backcountry.
Picture this: cinematic shots of Quavo, Luke, and Teddy living their best lives. From fishing to cruising through lush green landscapes, each scene radiates authenticity and Southern charm. It’s a visual love letter to Georgia, with 808s and a country banjo melody setting the mood.
Musically, the trio doesn’t miss a beat. Quavo’s signature melodic flow glides effortlessly alongside Luke Bryan’s country drawl, while Teddy Swims’ rich, soulful vocals tie it all together. The result? A genre-defying anthem that feels like a backyard barbecue with a hit record playing in the background.
So whether you’re a fan of hip-hop, country, soul, or just good ol’ Southern storytelling, “Georgia Ways” is a track that’ll stick with you like the red Georgia clay. Quavo, Luke, and Teddy didn’t just make a song—they made a vibe.
