Introduction
The fusion of country and hip-hop continues to produce some of the most exciting collaborations in music today. Following the success of genre-bending artists like Beyoncé, Post Malone, Morgan Wallen, and Shaboozey, another unique pairing is on the horizon. Country artist Ella Langley and Texas rapper BigXthaPlug are joining forces for a new single titled “Hell At Night.”
Both artists recently took to TikTok to give fans a sneak peek. BigXthaPlug initiated the buzz by sharing a snippet featuring Langley’s vocals, asking her, “@Ella Langley you ready to give em hell?” The post quickly went viral, racking up over 66,000 likes. Langley followed up with her own teaser, posting a clip of BigXthaPlug’s verse with the simple caption, “@BigXthaPlug #hellatnight.”
While this collaboration may seem unexpected, BigXthaPlug is no stranger to the country music scene. He previously worked with Shaboozey on tracks like “Drink Don’t Need No Mix” and “Home,” and also teamed up with Bailey Zimmerman for the single “All The Way.” These partnerships have solidified his reputation as a versatile artist who can navigate both genres.
The news has sent a wave of excitement through both fanbases.
