Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)”, has now spent more weeks at #1 on the Billboard Radio Songs Chart than any other song in HISTORY. It has now been #1 for a 27th week.

1.  It also topped the Country Airplay chart for seven consecutive weeks back in August, which was the longest streak ever for a debut single.

2.  It also made more history on the Country Airplay chart, as it continues to stay in the Top 10 for a record-extending 31st week.

3.  “Tipsy” is also the first song ever to break into the Top 5 on the Country Airplay chart, Pop Airplay chart, AND the Adult Pop Airplay chart.  

His new song “Good News” has been doing well, but it’s gotta be impossible to follow up the massive success of “Tipsy”.

Morgan Wallen just posted himself playing piano on a new version of his song, “Love Somebody”.  And fans are loving it. Fans are now calling for him to play the song on his upcoming tour, but he says in the video, “Probably not gonna play this on tour, not this version anyway, but I like how it sounds.” He then says he hasn’t practiced it much, and then goes on to play it perfectly. 

As a POP and R&B performer, Beyonce is one of the greatest performers of her generation. And Luke Bryan is even willing to take it a step further.  Luke said, “Beyoncé [is] probably the greatest singer in our lifetime . . . she’s one of the best singers and performers of ALL TIME, in my opinion.  Gosh, she’s so successful.”  He said he’s been a fan since the Destiny’s Child days.
