Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas’ Holds Hot 100 Crown as Dandelion Slips to No. 2

The shift underscores massive streaming and sales for Langley’s singles even as Morgan Wallen’s catalog strength returns his album to the top of country charts.

Overview

  • This week Langley’s album Dandelion fell from No. 1 to No. 2 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart after a 14-week run, and Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem reclaimed the top spot to extend its long total of weeks at No. 1.
  • Langley’s single “Choosin’ Texas” has spent 15 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, tying Harry Styles’s run for the longest non-holiday No. 1 by a solo act and marking a record for a non-holiday song by a woman.
  • Other songs from Dandelion have crossed over broadly: “Be Her” peaked at No. 2 on the Hot 100 and reached No. 1 on Country Airplay, and her duet with Morgan Wallen, “I Can’t Love You Anymore,” hit No. 4 on the Hot 100 and No. 2 on Country Airplay.
  • Langley is converting chart success into business moves, as reports say she partnered with BUM Energy to launch a Peaches & Honey energy drink described as zero sugar, 10 calories per can and 125 mg of caffeine, with those details reported but not independently verified.
  • Her ongoing Dandelion Tour, which spotlights other female country artists, is raising Langley’s profile on radio and streaming playlists and could help shift exposure and festival bookings for women in country music.
