Jelly Roll earns his eighth No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart as “Heart of Stone” rises a spot to the top of the ranking dated Oct. 11, up 9% to 33 million audience impressions Sept. 26-Oct. 2, according to Luminate.

The Nashville native co-wrote “Heart of Stone” with producer Zach Crowell, Shy Carter and Blake Pendergrass. It’s the third single from Jelly Roll’s LP Beautifully Broken, which launched last October at No. 1 on both Top Country Albums and the all-genre Billboard 200. His previous album, Whitsitt Chapel, arrived in June 2023 and peaked at No. 2 on the country survey and No. 3 on the Billboard 200, solidifying his commercial breakthrough.

All eight of Jelly Roll’s singles promoted to country radio have now gone the distance, extending his perfect record on Country Airplay. His prior leader, “Liar,” topped the chart in February and led for six consecutive weeks, his longest reign. He boasts the longest active chart-topping streak among all acts. (Luke Combs linked the list’s longest uninterrupted run of No. 1 promoted singles both from the start and overall: 14, in 2017-22.)

Beyond radio, Jelly Roll has made inroads on multiple Billboard rankings. Beautifully Broken’s dual No. 1 start pointed to strong demand across streaming and sales, while Country Airplay chart-toppers such as “Son of a Sinner” and “Need a Favor” also registered on Billboard’s rock and alternative rankings. That activity includes four No. 1s on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, through “Liar,” underscoring how his music has connected with audiences outside the country format.

Heavenly Ascent

Jackson Dean hits the Country Airplay top 10 for the second time with “Heavens to Betsy,” which rises 11-10 (16.5 million impressions, up 7%). The Maryland-born singer-songwriter previously reached the region with his first entry, “Don’t Come Lookin’,” which peaked at No. 3 in December 2022; he co-penned both songs.

All charts dated Oct. 11 will update Tuesday, Oct. 7, on Billboard.com.
