Monday Morning Chart Milestones: Country Artists Make Major Moves
This Monday morning’s chart roundup highlights six notable milestones, all achieved by artists widely associated with country music—though a few of the tracks cross into other radio formats. The weekly data reflects current chart positions followed by the previous week’s placement in parentheses, giving a clear view of each song’s momentum across formats such as Country, Pop, Hot AC (HAC), Adult Contemporary (AC), Rhythmic (RHY), Christian AC (CAC) and Urban AC (UAC).
Top Highlights
Leading the list is Ingrid Andress, who makes an impressive solo debut with “More Hearts than Mine.” The song anchors her forthcoming album Lady Like, scheduled for 2020, and this week it climbs into the Top 10 on the Country chart. Gabby Barrett also reaches the Country Top 10 with “I Hope,” a song she wrote while still an independent artist and which played a role in securing her deal with Warner Nashville following her appearance on the rebooted American Idol.
Morgan Wallen posts three separate milestones across three formats this week. His single “Chasin’ You,” the fourth release from the If I Know Me album, moves into the Country Top 15. In addition, his collaboration with Diplo titled “Heartless” — which also features Julia Michaels — debuts on both the Pop and Hot AC charts. The song shares its title with The Weeknd’s “Heartless,” which is also charting on both Pop and Hot AC.
Season 10 American Idol winner Scotty McCreery earns a Country Top 20 placement with “In Between.” This marks the third single from his Seasons Change album to reach the Top 20. Returning to the Christian AC chart, Colton Dixon’s “Miracles” re-enters the Top 50.
