Proving his staying power and piling on to his “skyrocketing fame” (EXTRA), Big Loud Records’ superstar Morgan Wallen shattered Country streaming records at both Apple Music and Spotify with his latest “7 Summer”.
The “swoon-worthy nostalgic track” (Billboard) set the new Apple Music first day record for a Country song with the most streams ever (4.6 MILLION), debuting at #3 on the Global Top 100 chart while topping the Country Songs charts in both the U.S. and Canada. Only trailing Drake (feat. Lil Durk)’s “Laugh Now Cry Later” and Cardi B (feat. Megan Thee Stallion)’s viral “WAP,” “7 Summers” makes an international statement across all genres with its unprecedented debut.
Setting the historic bar at Spotify, “7 Summers” now holds the biggest all-time first day record for a Country track by a solo artist, reaching #3 on the U.S. all-genre Top 200 chart upon release. Fans swarmed to hear the full version of Wallen’s easy-going summer soundtrack after the song’s initial popularity took hold on social media, arriving with “the most consistent stamp of approval signifying a smash these days: it’s already viral at TikTok” (HITS).
