Beyonce's foray into the country genre seemed to be successful! "Texas Hold 'Em," after debuting at No. 2 last week, has risen to dethrone Jack Harlow's "Lovin' On Me" at the top.

Billboard and Luminate reported that the song raked in 29 million streams and 16. 1 million radio airplay impressions. It has also sold 29,000 downloads in its second week.

It's currently at No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales chart for the second week, and it rose to No. 1 on Streaming Songs, while it sits at No. 43 on Radio Songs.

To date, this is Beyonce's ninth Billboard Hot 100 chartleader. The last one she got was "Break My Soul" from "Renaissance: Act I" in 2022.

She hit the charts in 2020 with Megan THee Stallion for a week with "Savage," and "Perfect" with Ed Sheeran in 2017.

Before "Break My Soul," Beyonce's last single from an album was in 2008 for "Single Ladis (Put A Ring On It)." "Irreplaceable," "Check On It," "Baby Boy," and "Crazy In Love" were also Beyonce's chart toppers.

With "Texas Hold 'Em" at No. 1, this made Beyonce the artist with the Seventh-most Weeks on the Hot 100 with 47 weeks. Usher edged him at 45 weeks.

She has to spend three or four more weeks to tie or surpass Boyz II Men with 50 weeks in total on the Hot 100.

Meanwhile, it debuted at No. 54 on the Country Airplay Chart, No. 38 on Pop Airplay, and plays on the Rhythmic, Adult Pop, Adult R&B, and even on Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop formats. It's also No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales chart.

The BeyHive is thrilled and pumped about the upcoming release of "Renaissance: Act II" which will drop on Mar. 29, 2024.
