Chart Action: Hayes Most Added, Bentley Debuts

Monument Records artist Walker Hayes is the most added this week on the Mediabase chart, earning 69 new station adds. His single, “Y’all Life,” is the follow up to his viral hit “Fancy Like” and is his highest streaming debut to date.

“We’ve been at this a long time, and I’ve never had this many stations add one of my songs on day one,” says Hayes. “Thanks to my team for busting it out there and thank you to all the stations spinning my songs. If your local station is on the song give ‘em a shout!”

“Y’all Life” was written by Hayes with Pete Good, Josh Jenkins, Cornell Haynes Jr. (Nelly), and Jason Epperson. It continues Hayes’ tradition of releasing songs that reflect his personal experiences. “I’ve found the more I show people the ‘real,’ the more relatable it seems to be, so here’s to more stories about how y’all are livin’, too!”

On the MusicRow CountryBreakout Radio Chart, Dierks Bentley‘s latest single, “Gold,” marks its debut at No. 59. He received +256 spins from 21 new station adds. Benltey wrote the single with Ross Copperman, Luke Dick, and Ashley Gorley.

“2020 was a chance for me to give my guitar and the road a little rest. It gave me the chance to spend a lot more time adventuring outdoors with family and friends, but also alone. It also gave me time to reset and rekindle my love of country music and a lot of the types of songs and sounds that I fell in love with when I first got to Nashville,” Bentley explains. “I think you’ll hear that in this first track, but it carries across the whole album.”
