Beyoncé Breaks Records as the First African American Woman to Top the Hot Country Songs Chart

In a groundbreaking moment for music history, Beyoncé shattered a significant barrier by becoming the first African American woman to reach the pinnacle of the Hot Country Songs chart. This achievement, with her single “Texas Hold 'Em,” dethroned the duet “I Remember Everything” by Zach Bryan and Kacey Musgraves, which had held the top spot for a remarkable 20 weeks.

“Texas Hold 'Em” also debuted at the second position on the Hot 100 chart. Beyoncé’s triumph serves as a testament to her innovative spirit and the evolving landscape of country music.
