Choosin’ Texas Still Owns the Dial, New Music Hits Hard

Fresh chart shake-ups and brand-new releases are landing fast—here’s what country fans are hearing right now.

Alright y’all, let’s spin through what’s moving right now—the stuff you’re hearing between the commercials, turning up in your truck, and creeping into your “play it again” brain.

Ella Langley keeps the crown warm

If your station feels like it’s living in “Choosin’ Texas,” you’re not imagining it. The song is still doing big-time business at country radio, including a return to the top on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart dated March 14, 2026.

Morgan Wallen adds another big radio moment

20 Cigarettes” already cashed in at No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart dated Feb. 28, 2026, giving Morgan Wallen his 20th Country Airplay chart-topper. If it’s still sitting heavy in rotation where you are, that’s why—it’s a proven button-pusher.

Luke Combs: a brand-new album is on your speakers

New music week? Oh yeah. Luke Combs dropped his new album The Way I Am on March 20, 2026, and it’s the kind of record that instantly turns into “pick a favorite track and claim it” season. If you’re a full-album listener, this one’s built for long drives. ([lukecombs.com](https://www.lukecombs.com/album/the-way-i-am/?utm_source=openai))

Jason Aldean rolls out a fresh single

Jason Aldean came in hot with “Don’t Tell on Me,” released March 2, 2026. If you like that classic Aldean edge—tight drums, big chorus, no apologies—this one’s made to punch through the speakers. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_Tell_on_Me?utm_source=openai))

Heads-up to radio: Morgan Wallen adds another song to the lineup

Also on the Wallen front, “Don’t We” was serviced to country radio on March 2, 2026—so if you’re hearing it start to pop up more often, it’s officially in that “hello, I live here now” phase. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_We?utm_source=openai))
