Another chart topped by “Choosin’ Texas.”
As we sit in 2026, there’s simply no denying that Ella Langley is the hottest star in country music. Launching off the success of her Riley Green collaboration, “you look like you love me” throughout 2024 and 2025, the Alabama native has become nothing short of a phenomenon thanks to the megahit that is “Choosin’ Texas.”
In case you haven’t been keeping up with “Choosin’ Texas’” success, it just spent its eighth non-consecutive week at #1 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100. Along the way, she’s broken a plethora of records, including becoming the first woman ever to triple up and score a #1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay and Hot 100 chart simultaneously, breaking Taylor Swift’s record and having the longest-running #1 hit on the Hot 100 by a female country singer (seven weeks and counting), matching Swift to become the second female country artist in history to have the #1 song and album (Dandelion) in the U.S. simultaneously and becoming just the third artist ever to hold the top three songs on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.
Today, it was revealed that she has dominated another one of Billboard’s categories — their new TouchTunes Artists chart.
In case you’re somehow unfamiliar with what TouchTunes is, it’s a digital jukebox that allows users to play songs at bars and restaurants from the jukebox itself or through their mobile app. Becoming increasingly popular over the past few years, TouchTunes are now available in more than 60,000 locations worldwide and have subsequently become the main form of music consumption at local bars across the country.
As reported by Billboard today, “Choosin’ Texas” was the most-played song on the platform so far in 2026, going #1 on the TouchTunes Frontline chart in the first quarter of 2025 (dated January 1 to March 31). Beyond “Choosin’ Texas,” Langley also accounts for four of the Top 25 most-played songs to start the year, with her BigXthaPlug collaboration, “Hell at Night” rising to #7, “weren’t for the wind” slotting in at #15 and “Be Her” debuting at #23 despite being released halfway through the tracking period on February 13th.
Additionally, Langley makes her debut on the TouchTunes Artist chart, flying all the way to #2 behind fellow country superstar and the king of TouchTunes himself, Morgan Wallen, and ahead of other dominant artists on the platform like Chris Stapleton, Toby Keith, Lynyrd Skynyrd and more. With the #2 spot, she becomes the first solo woman in any genre to appear in the TouchTunes Artist chart since its inception last year — the first group was Fleetwood Mac in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Diving deeper into the numbers with Langley’s meteoric rise in 2026, a staggering 59% of her all-time plays on TouchTunes have been in the past five months alone — obviously being boosted by “Choosin’ Texas'” record-breaking run.
Unsurprisingly, Wallen is still dominating the platform as a whole despite not having the #1 song on the Frontline chart this time around. In addition to being the #1 artist, he holds five of the Top 25 most-played songs, with “I’m the Problem” holding strong at #2 behind “Choosin’ Texas.”
