Bebe Rexha & Florida Georgia Line Tie Sam Hunt’s Hot Country Songs Record

“Meant To Be” spends a record-tying 34th week atop Hot Country Songs.

Bebe Rexha’s smash “Meant To Be (featuring Florida Georgia Line)” remains #1 on this week’s edition of the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.

The song is celebrating a 34th consecutive week as America’s hottest country song. That reign ties the all-time record, which was set by Sam Hunt’s “Body Like A Back Road” last year.

“Meant To Be” remains a behemoth on the sales and streaming fronts. It also continues to receive airplay at country, pop, hot adult contemporary and hot adult contemporary radio. Airplay from all radio formats counts toward the Hot Country Songs chart.

With “Meant To Be” still generating ample activity, it has a legitimate chance of breaking the record next week.
