Warner Music Nashville artist Gabby Barrett is now the first female country artist to top 10 million single-week streams, with 11.3 million streams this week for her single, “I Hope,” which continues to sit atop the Country On-Demand Streaming chart for a seventh consecutive week.
On country radio, “I Hope” recently became the first debut single from a female artist to reach No. 1 since 2017.
Country music superstar Trisha Yearwood dropped by (virtually) the CMT Hot 20 to surprise Barrett with the news of her streaming record. Barrett will release her debut full-length album Goldmine on June 19.
