I was so distracted by Ella Langley’s history-making success with ‘Choosin’ Texas’ that I didn’t realize she had another hit hot on its heels.
Langley shows up at #4 on the latest Hot 100 with ‘Be Her,’ the second single from her latest album, Dandelion. ‘Be Her’ entered the Hot 100 at #18 nine weeks ago and has steadily climbed to its current peak. Could it go even higher, and maybe even give the new country star her second chart-topper?
I haven’t done a new installment of ‘What the Kids Are Listening To’ since last November (not counting the year-end roundup) so I figured it was time to check back in with the latest chart-toppers.
I’m excited by the song at #1 on the latest edition of the Hot 100: Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas.’ This surprise hit was co-written by my beloved Miranda Lambert, and I’m always happy to see her get her flowers, even indirectly.
Most of the credit is due to Langley, of course, who co-wrote the track and performs it with a mix of melancholy and grit. But indulge me as I celebrate both of these women.
