It’s big flexing and Southern pride on full display right here. Completely tap in.
Grammy-nominated recording artist Quavo has teamed up with 5-time Entertainer of The Year country artist Luke Bryan, and Grammy-nominated artist Teddy Swims to deliver their new collaborative song and music video, “Georgia Ways,” via Quality Control Music/Motown Records. The new track comes on the heels of Quavo being named this year’s Variety Hitmakers Humanitarian of the Year Award winner for his work with Rocket Foundation and his efforts to combat gun violence in America. “Georgia Ways” made its broadcast premiere today on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop, CMT Music, CMT Equal Play and on the Paramount Times Square billboards. The genre-bending hometown anthem highlights each of the Georgia natives’ distinct swagger and charm as they reflect on their Southern roots, which helped shape them into the icons they are today. Directed by Wyatt Spain, the accompanying music video for “Georgia Ways” transports viewers to the Georgia backcountry. Quavo, Luke, and Teddy seamlessly blend their signature vocal styles as they weave nostalgic verses over booming 808 drums and a country-inspired banjo melody. The video alternates between cinematic shots of the trio in their own authentic 'Georgia ways,' whether it be fishing or cruising through Georgia’s lush greenery, amplifying the song's authentic Southern vibe.
Earlier this week, Quavo teased the single by sharing a picture of himself fishing with Luke on Instagram, alerting fans that new music was on the way. The track also made a splash at last week’s University of Georgia vs. Georgia Tech football game, where it was played during the tailgate and on the jumbotron while Quavo was in attendance. Additionally, “Georgia Ways” will be featured across ESPN programming leading into SEC Championship and throughout the college football playoff. The network will also be highlighting a short clip of the official music video during the SEC Championship game on 12/7.
