Ella Langley has officially tied one of the biggest records in Billboard Hot 100 history.“Choosin’Texas”just logged its 22nd non-consecutive week at Number One, matching the mark set by Mariah Carey’s“All I Want for Christmas Is You.”With the holidays still two months out, Langley has a real chance to break the record before Carey’s annual December surge.
The success doesn’t stop at the singles chart.“Dandelion,”Langley’s sophomore album, returned to Number One on the Billboard albums chart. She also leads the 60th CMA Awards with nine nominations, including Entertainer of the Year. The genre has been on a historic run all year: in August, country claimed all top five spots on the Billboard 100, and Taylor Swift scored her first country radio Number One in 13 years with“I Knew It, I Knew You.”
“Choosin’Texas”came out in October 2025 and first reached the top in February. Morgan Wallen and Stella Lefty are among the country artists charting right alongside Langley. Country fans have watched this genre grow for years. Right now it feels like the whole country is watching with us. What’s your favorite Ella Langley song so far? Let us know in the comments.
