Hot 100: Maddie & Tae, RaeLynn Rise to New Highs This Week

Several weeks ago, Maddie & Tae’s “Girl in a Country Song” and RaeLynn’s “God Made Girls” simultaneously elevated to new highs on the Billboard Hot 100.

This week, the two songs do it again.

Benefiting from the airplay surge that took it to #1 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, Maddie & Tae’s “Girl” hits a new high of #54 on the all-encompassing chart. Its position bests last week’s mark by five.

RaeLynn’s “God Made Girls,” meanwhile, rockets twenty five places to a new peak of #61. The lift comes courtesy a performance on “The Voice,” which resulted in an immense gain to the sales portion of the song’s Hot 100 score (and produced a #1 position on the Country Digital Songs chart).

The Maddie & Tae and RaeLynn songs also improve their positions on the Hot Country Songs chart this week, where they register at #3 and #7, respectively.

— Tim McGraw’s “Shotgun Rider,” the highest-charting country effort on the Hot 100, improves by four places to #43.
