Luke Combs' BEAUTIFUL CRAZY Remains #1 On Billboard's Country Airplay Chart For Seventh Consecutive Week
By: Tori Hartshorn Apr. 09, 2019
CMA and ACM Award-winning musician Luke Combs' 2x Platinum single, "Beautiful Crazy," remains #1 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart for the seventh-straight week-tyingthe second longest run atop the chart since its launch in 1990 and a feat not achieved since Tim McGraw's "Live Like You Were Dying" in 2004.
"Beautiful Crazy" is Combs' fastest rising single to date (15 weeks) and makes Combs the first artist ever to send his first five singles to the top of Billboard's Country Airplay chart. "Beautiful Crazy" is also the first country single shipped to radio already platinum-certified since Taylor Swift's "Red" in 2013 and has more than 324 million on-demand streams. In celebration of these milestones, Combs recently performed an acoustic version of the song during the 2019 ACM Awards live broadcast. Watch/share HERE. Of the performance,Billboard praises, "...a stirring version of the hit single...the arrangement breathed a second life into a song that many would have stated was perfect as is beforehand," while Rolling Stonedeclares, "...Combs showed why he's one of the genre's most promising young voices."
Continuing his landmark year, Combs has sold out venues in 25 of the 29 cities on his newly confirmed "Beer Never Broke My Heart" fall tour since tickets went on sale this past Friday. Combs broke records at Bozeman's Brick Breeden Fieldhouse, Bloomington's Grossinger Motors Arena and Bossier City's CenturyLink Center for the fastest sell out times in venue history. Additional sold-out shows include Kansas City's Spring Center, Portland's Moda Center, Sacramento's Golden 1 Center, Phoenix's Talking Stick Resort Arena, Philadelphia'sWells Fargo Center and Nashville's Bridgestone Arena among several others. Special guests throughout the tour include Morgan Wallen, The Cadillac Three and Jameson Rodgers. See below for complete tour details.
Additionally, Combs was named New Male Artist of the Year at the 2019 ACM Awards and recently made history as the first artist to simultaneously top all five Billboard country charts for multiple weeks: Top Country Albums, Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, Country Streaming Songs and Country Digital Song Sales (dated March 9, March 30 and April 6).
These achievements add to an already monumental year for Combs, whose breakthrough debut album This One's For You is now certified RIAA double Platinum. Since it's release June 2, 2017, the album has spent a total of 30 non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart-the longest reign for a solo male artist in over 25 years. The album also spent 16 weeks at #1 in 2018-making it the highest selling country album last year with 1.1 million equivalent album units sold and the only country album to surpass 1 million album units. It's also the most-streamed country album of 2019 so far. Additionally, Combs was recently named Country Artist of the Year at the 2019 iHeartRadio Music Awards, New Artist of the Year at the 52nd Annual CMA Awards, was nominated for Best New Artist at the 61st GRAMMY Awards and was the recipient of a CMA Triple Play Award for writing three #1 songs in a 12 month period.
