Ryan Upchurch and Chase Matthew shared a remix of Lil Durk and Morgan Wallen’s highly-anticipated collaboration, “Broadway Girls.”
After teasing fans on social media, Upchurch and Matthew have officially dropped their “Broadway Girls” remix on Sunday evening (Dec. 19) and it seems fans are loving it.
In addition to dropping the remix for the song, Upchurch and Matthew filmed a video for the track in Downtown Nashville on Lower Broadway.
The video features footage of Upchurch and Matthew in the studio recording the song intertwined with clips of the singers walking around on Lower Broadway. The Hollerboys Records CEO and signee even filmed a few clips inside Aldeans, a SoBro bar owned by fellow country star, Jason Aldean.
Watch the music video for the remix below.
The remix comes just days after Lil Durk and Wallen dropped the collaboration on Friday (Dec. 17). The track details a night out in Downtown Nashville with a girl that he met at “Aldeans.”
The bar name-drop in the song comes after the Wallen made several surprise appearances earlier this year at the four-level eatery, saloon and rooftop bar in Music City, dubbed Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Rooftop Bar.
Sonically, the song is different from anything we’ve ever heard from Wallen. While maintaining his signature deep southern twang, the superstar pushed his musical boundaries further than ever before by incorporating hip-hop elements for a fresh new sound.
Wallen and Lil Durk blend their voices together flawlessly while traded verses throughout the fan-favorite track.
The collaboration did not come as a surprise to fans, as Lil Durk gave Wallen his stamp of approval by commenting on the chart-topping hitmaker’s teaser clip, released in early October. When the teaser of “Broadway Girls” appeared on social media, the anthemic tune instantly took the internet by storm as fans begged for its release.
While Wallen did not confirm the tune’s release date at the time, the multi-platinum artist spoke out about the upbeat banger earlier this week during an interview with his longtime friend ERNEST, on the Just Being ERNEST podcast.
During the podcast, the “Sand In My Boots” singer told the host, who is his Big Loud labelmate, that he doesn’t “know what’s going to happen with [the song], but… there [are] a few options.” He then went on to share that he may even leak the song or “it might end up on somebody’s album,” but didn’t confirm whose or when the track would be released.
The world-renowned musician not only name-dropped a bar that he previously frequented, but during the interview with ERNEST, he revealed that he also gave a nod to his cousin Andrew Greene, who goes by Bean.
“Shoutout Andrew Greene, dude, string bean, if you guys hear that in ‘Broadway Girls,’ when it comes out, that’s who we’re talking about,” Wallen said. The shout-out to Greene is during the chorus when Wallen sings, “Bean had to take her phone and that just took her smile away…”
A music video for the song seems to also be in the works, as several clips have appeared throughout social media on Wednesday (Dec. 15) of Wallen and Lil Durk filming on Lower Broadway in Downtown Nashville.
The clips that surfaced online features the pair shooting the music video in the wee hours of the morning when the popular hangout spot is closed and clear of country music fans.
