Jelly Roll hits No. 1 on Country Airplay while Jackson Dean enters Top 10
Jelly Roll has once again secured the top spot on the Billboard Country Airplay chart with his latest single, “Heart of Stone.” This achievement adds to his remarkable streak of No. 1 hits, with every single release reaching the peak position on the charts. Prior to this success, his track “Liar” held the top spot for an impressive six weeks earlier this year, solidifying his status as a dominant force in the country music scene.
“Heart of Stone” is the third single from Jelly Roll’s album, Beautifully Broken, which made a grand entrance by debuting at No. 1 on both the Top Country Albums and Billboard 200 charts last year. The song was a collaborative effort, co-written by Jelly Roll alongside Zach Crowell, Shy Carter, and Blake Pendergrass, showcasing his ability to work effectively with other talented songwriters in the industry.
One of the key factors contributing to Jelly Roll’s widespread appeal is his success on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. His songs “Liar,” “Son of a Sinner,” and “Need a Favor” have all claimed the top spot on this chart, highlighting his versatility and ability to resonate with audiences across different genres. This crossover success speaks volumes about his artistry and the strong connection he has with his fans.
In a similar vein, rising country artist Jackson Dean has also made significant strides on the Country Airplay chart with his single, “Heavens to Betsy,” reaching the impressive No. 10 position. This marks his second major breakthrough on the charts, following the success of his previous single, “Don’t Come Lookin’,” which peaked at No. 3 in December 2022. Dean’s authentic songwriting and emotive vocals have garnered him a loyal following and established him as a promising talent in the contemporary country music scene.
With Jelly Roll’s continued dominance on the charts and Dean’s rising trajectory, country radio is experiencing a wave of momentum driven by these talented artists. Their success underscores the vibrant and dynamic landscape of country music today, where established stars and emerging talents alike are making their mark and captivating audiences with their unique sound and storytelling. As these artists continue to shine and push boundaries, the future of country music looks bright and full of exciting possibilities.
