Toby Keith Finds Success In “Red Solo Cup”
Toby Keith’s new album Clancy’s Tavern recently debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart. The album’s first-week success had been primarily fueled by the No. 1 hit “Made In America” and Keith’s viral music video “Red Solo Cup.”
Though still not officially a single, “Red Solo Cup” has registered more than two million YouTube views. The song and video have both topped the iTunes country sales list, while country radio stations nationwide have made the album track one of the most-added songs, breaking into the Top 40 without a concerted label promotion effort. Additionally, CMT.com has “Red Solo Cup” as its No. 1 video, joined by “Made In America” at No. 5.
While the buzz builds stateside, Keith is in the midst of the European leg of his Locked & Loaded Tour. Clancy’s Tavern is currently No. 1 on the UK’s country iTunes chart, with prior albums American Ride and Bullets In The Gun both entering the top 20 this week.
