Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas’ Extends No. 1 Run on Billboard Hot 100 to 13 Weeks

Listeners continue to be choosin’ “Choosin’ Texas,” as Ella Langley’s smash holds for a 13th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The song’s newest historic levels: The hit, which first led the Hot 100 in February, is one of just five, and the only one by an act known for primarily recording country music, to have dominated for 13 weeks or more among titles by women with no male-billed acts.

Here’s an updated rundown, ranked by most weeks at No. 1, over the Hot 100’s archives, which date to August 1958:

“Choosin’ Texas” is, thus, the first non-holiday song to join the group above since Carey’s “We Belong Together” 21 years ago.

Meanwhile, Langley boasts three songs in the Hot 100’s top four spots, with “Choosin’ Texas” joined by “Be Her,” steady at its No. 3 high, and “I Can’t Love You Anymore,” with Morgan Wallen, new to the top five with a 6-4 jump. How rare is that kind of a triple-up?

Read on for details of the feat and the entire top 10 on this week’s Hot 100.

The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts dated July 18, 2026, will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, July 14. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.

“Choosin’ Texas,” on SAWGOD/Columbia Records, with Triple Tigers having overseen promotion of the song to country radio, totaled 25.1 million official streams (down 3% week over week), 50.8 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 2%) and 7,000 sold (down 14%) in the United States July 3-9.

The single is stationary atop the Streaming Songs chart, leading for a 14th week; at No. 6, after reaching No. 4, on Radio Songs; and at No. 1 on Digital Song Sales, where it’s on top for a 12th week. On Streaming Songs, it ties for the fifth-longest rule in the chart’s history. On Digital Song Sales, it becomes of only 10 titles to have led for at least a dozen weeks.

Plus, “Choosin’ Texas” tops the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart for a 31st week and Songs of the Summer for a sixth week.

Langley has two more songs in the top four of the Hot 100: “Be Her” keeps at No. 3 after reaching No. 2 and “I Can’t Love You Anymore,” with Morgan Wallen, pushes 6-4 for its first week in the top five (up 5% to 29.2 million in airplay audience).

The only acts that have infused the Hot 100’s top four places with at least three hits at once — with Langley the first female artist to do so with a trio of country songs: The Beatles (for a record seven weeks), Drake (six), Kendrick Lamar (five), Taylor Swift (four), Wallen (two), 21 Savage, Sabrina Carpenter, Ariana Grande and Langley (one each).

Langley’s three songs in the region are from her second LP, Dandelion, which has spent all 13 of its weeks and counting on the Top Country Albums chart at No. 1. They have been promoted, in their order on the Hot 100, as the first three radio singles from the set (with “Loving Life Again,” which debuts on the latest Country Airplay chart, its newest offering).

Also in the Hot 100’s top five for the first time, Tame Impala and JENNIE’s “Dracula” surges 8-5 (gaining 3% to 59.6 million in radio reach). Already each act’s first top 10 on the chart, it leads Pop Airplay for a second week, after it ruled Alternative Airplay for two weeks in February.

“Dracula” concurrently tops the multimetric Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart for a 27th week and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs for a ninth week.

Taylor Swift’s “I Knew It, I Knew You” ranks at No. 2 on the Hot 100 for a third consecutive week, after it spent its first two weeks on the chart at No. 1 in June.

Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me” lifts 7-6 after it led the Hot 100 in its debut week in May.

Bruno Mars’ “I Just Might,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 in January and led for three weeks through March, pushes 10-7. It tops Radio Songs for a 21st week (63.3 million, down 2%), while leading the multimetric Hot R&B Songs chart for a 26th frame. On Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, it rebounds for a 19th week at No. 1, solely claiming the fifth-longest command in the chart’s history, which dates to October 1958.

Drake’s “Janice STFU” drops 4-8 after logging its first two weeks on the Hot 100 at No. 1 beginning in late May. It posts an eighth week atop the multimetric Hot Rap Songs chart.

Olivia Dean rounds out the Hot 100’s top 10 with two songs: “So Easy (To Fall in Love)” returns to the tier, up 12-9, after reaching No. 5, and “Man I Need” falls 5-10 after hitting No. 2.
