You know The Cupid Shuffle. Now meet the guy who made it. Devon and Cupid get into how a line dance becomes a movement, how his time on The Voice really went down, and what it takes to earn a ticket to the Linedance King's cookout.
Hailing from Lafayette, Louisiana, Cupid is the undisputed King of Line Dance. With his soulful voice and infectious dance tracks, he has made the world move for years. Starting his musical journey in church and local talent shows, he released his first local hit, “Do Yo Thang,” in 2001.
In 2006, Cupid recorded “The Cupid Shuffle,” which became a viral sensation and a dancefloor staple. Signed to Atlantic Records in 2007, he released his national debut album Time for a Change. “The Cupid Shuffle” remains one of the most iconic dance songs in music history.
After leaving Atlantic, Cupid continued to build his catalog with fan favorites like “Love Slide,” “Do It With Your Boots On,” “Old School,” and “Wham Dance.” His crossover appeal has earned him fans across country, Southern soul, hip hop, pop, and dance music genres, helping spread line dance culture worldwide.
Post-pandemic, he returned strong with the viral hit “FLEX,” nearing Gold certification. Recent releases like “The Cookout” and “Down South Shuffle” continue his legacy.
A certified 5x Platinum recording artist, Cupid has led campaigns for Walmart and McDonald’s, and his music has been featured in Step Up 2, Jumping the Broom, Nancy Drew, and numerous other films and shows.
Cupid’s new album, “The Linedance King,” is out now.
