RUSSELL DICKERSON’S VIRAL NEW COLLABORATION “BOOTS” FEATURING FETTY WAP AVAILABLE NOW
Headlining RUSSELLMANIA Tour Hits Nashville TONIGHT!
NASHVILLE, TN – May 8, 2026 – Multi-platinum selling artist Russell Dickerson releases his new genre-blending single “BOOTS”, featuring 2x Grammy-nominated, Double Diamond-selling artist Fetty Wap, out today. Marking a year of “new heights” (Billboard), the track—written by Dickerson, Fetty Wap, Matt Dragstrem, and Dylan Marlowe—is built for the dance floor, fusing country swagger with R&B and hip-hop rhythm, anchored in vivid, sensory storytelling. “BOOTS” unfolds in a late-night barroom setting where a magnetic connection takes over the room and quickly turns into something unforgettable. Dickerson leans into playful, romantic lyricism throughout, while Fetty Wap brings his signature melodic confidence, adding a global, cross-genre edge that heightens the track’s genre-defying feel. The result is a flirtatious, “country-trap anthem” (Holler) that lives somewhere between a honky tonk and a late-night club. Following a viral early teaser that sparked tens of millions of views and fan anticipation across platforms, “BOOTS” marks one of Dickerson’s most adventurous releases to date, expanding his sound while staying rooted in storytelling.

“I’ve been a Fetty Wap fan since the beginning and his music has influenced mine probably more than I even know,” said Dickerson. “So to have a song coming out with one of my biggest modern musical influences is one of the best feelings and what I think music is all about, creating something special with artists you love.”
“Working with Russell on this record was easy. Nothing felt forced,” said Fetty Wap. “It was just good energy and a real natural vibe. I always been the type of artist that can tap into different sounds, and Russell got that same type of range, so it came together organic. It’s one of them records you can just ride to, feel good to, and play all summer.”
The RUSSELLMANIA Tour lands at Nashville’s Ascend Amphitheater for a hometown birthday blowout tonight (5/8). Dubbed the “Nash-Birthday Bash,” the night will feature Dickerson alongside Tyler Hubbard, Adrien Nunez, and Kevin Powers. The tour continues this summer with dates across amphitheaters and his largest venues to date. For tickets and a full list of tour dates, visit RussellDickerson.com/tours.
