Iconic Bridge Closed for Music Video Shoot

On June 17, 2025, the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge in Dallas, Texas, was temporarily closed during evening rush hour to accommodate a music video shoot for the upcoming single "Highway Highway." The event, officially permitted by the Dallas Office of Special Events, featured country artist Shaboozey and Dallas rapper BigXthaPlug. The picturesque bridge, known for its striking 400-foot center arch and spanning over 1,800 feet, served as a dramatic backdrop for the production.

Unexpected Closure Surprises Commuters

Commuters were taken by surprise when they encountered the unexpected closure. Local resident Jesse Sanchez described the scene as "pretty cool" despite the inconvenience. He witnessed Shaboozey performing on a flatbed truck stage surrounded by a film crew and entourage. The spectacle caused stop-and-go traffic, with only one side of the bridge remaining open. Some bystanders, including a woman in wedding attire, added to the unusual scene, while Dallas Tow & Go provided a tow truck for the shoot.

Artists Blend Country and Trap in New Single

"Highway Highway" marks the second collaboration between Shaboozey and BigXthaPlug, following their 2024 hit "Drink Don't Need No Mix" from Shaboozey's album Where I've Been, Isn't Where I'm Going. Both artists are known for blending country melodies with trap beats, a fusion that has garnered attention in both the rap and country music scenes.

BigXthaPlug’s Upcoming Projects and Collaborations

BigXthaPlug, a Dallas native, is rumored to be working on a country EP featuring collaborations with artists like Luke Combs, Post Malone, and Jelly Roll. He is also teasing another single titled "All Gas No Brakes" with Teddy Swims. Both "Highway Highway" and "All the Way" are expected to be part of his forthcoming country-rap project.
