Ella Langley Tops Billboard's 200 And Hot 100

(Columbia Records) Ella Langley reaches new heights this week, landing her sophomore album Dandelion at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 marking the largest week for a country album by a woman in two years, and the biggest week of 2026 for any woman.⁠ Her Platinum-certified smash "Choosin' Texas" also holds the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for a 7th week and has also led the Hot Country Songs chart for 21 weeks.

With the milestone, Ella becomes just the second female country artist ever to top both charts simultaneously, further cementing her status as one of the most dominant forces in music today. Dandelion was executive produced by Ella alongside Miranda Lambert and Ben West.

Praised as "an instant classic" by People and "vivid and reflective" by Billboard, the album highlights the full scope of Ella's artistry, underscoring what All Country News calls her "refusal to be boxed in, sonically or emotionally." Across the 18 tracks, Ella threads together raw, detail-rich songwriting with a wide-ranging sound that honors country tradition while pushing confidently into modern territory.

The album's impact continues across the charts, as standout track "Be Her" holds to No. 2 on Hot Country Songs and climbs to No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, leading Ella to become the first country female to chart two songs in the Top 5 simultaneously. She also makes history as the first female artist to claim the top two spots on Billboard's Streaming Songs chart with country releases, and the first woman to chart two solo songs in the top 10 of Billboard's Country Airplay chart simultaneously.
