Ella Langley Shatters Billboard Record with 'Choosin' Texas'!
Country music sensation Ella Langley makes history as 'Choosin' Texas' reigns supreme for 17 weeks on Billboard's Hot 100, surpassing Morgan Wallen! Discover her monumental achievement and the rise of country music.
Country music phenom Ella Langley is making waves, and not just ripples, as her hit single "Choosin' Texas" has officially shattered a major Billboard record! The track just claimed its astounding seventeenth week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, firmly planting Langley's flag in music history.
This incredible run by "Choosin' Texas" officially bests Morgan Wallen's 16-week reign with "Last Night" in 2023, a significant achievement for the rising star. Only a handful of legendary songs have held the top spot longer: Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” and the holiday classic Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” Many are calling "Choosin' Texas" the undisputed song of the summer, and its staying power shows no signs of waning.
Despite beating out Wallen's record, the two artists are far from competitors; in fact, they're collaborators. Their duet, "I Can’t Love You Anymore," recently climbed to Number One on Country Airplay, marking Wallen's 22nd hit country single. This highlights the supportive and dynamic nature of today's country music scene.
Langley's success is a shining example of country music's current dominance. Just last week, country artists remarkably claimed all top five spots on the Billboard 100. "Choosin’ Texas" led the charge, followed by Wallen’s “Been By Now,” Taylor Swift’s “I Knew It, I Knew You,” the Wallen-Langley collaboration “I Can’t Love You Anymore,” and Lefty’s “Boston.” This unprecedented showing underscores the genre's broad appeal.
Langley's popularity has even inspired a dedicated fanbase, affectionately known as “Ella’s Fellas.” For those eager to catch her live, the Dandelion tour continues this week, with a highly anticipated stop at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, on August 13th.
