America’s New No. 1 Song Just Did What Even Taylor Swift Couldn’t The latest Hot 100 chart-topper announces the arrival of a new country-music superstar.

Two-steppin' round the room: my new #WhyIsThisSongNo1? on @slate.com is about β€œChoosin’ Texas,” Ella Langley’s country smash that’s improbably tops@popβ€”the 1st song by a woman to top #Hot100, Hot Country +Country Airplay (a decade after #Tomatogate). How did Ella go where even Dolly&Taylor couldn’t?

Ella Langley and Megan Moroney’s Milestone Chart-Toppers Are Forcing Nashville to Break a Decades-Old Rule Megan Moroney's and Ella Langley's simultaneous success is breaking traditional country rules about only woman thriving in the mainstream at a time.

P.S. Shout-out to the always spot-on @natalieweiner.bsky.social for her recent @billboard.com analysis of what Langley+Moroney atop the pop charts means for women in country. I cited & quoted Natalie directly in my @slate.com piece.
