Luke Combs banks his record-extending 14th consecutive career-opening No. 1 single on Billboard‘s Country Airplay chart as “Doin’ This” jumps from No. 4 to the top, up 16% to 24 million impressions in the week ending May 15, according to Luminate.
Combs penned the song with Drew Parker and Robert Williford. It’s the lead single from his June 24 album, Growin’ Up.
The track follows Combs’ “Cold as You,” which led Country Airplay for a week last November, after Jameson Rodgers’ “Cold Beer Calling My Name,” featuring Combs, ruled for a week in October.
Combs’ run of Country Airplay No. 1s started when “Hurricane” ruled for its first of two weeks in May 2017.
‘STRAIT’ UP Meanwhile, Scotty McCreery’s “Damn Strait” becomes his fifth Hot Country Songs top 10, as it pushes 11-10. On Country Airplay, it lifts 17-13 (12.4 million, up 18%). The cut drew 6.6 million streams and sold 1,400 downloads in the tracking week.
McCreery last hit the Hot Country Songs top 10 with “You Time,” which hit No. 7 last October. It simultaneously became his fourth Country Airplay leader. The 2011 American Idol champ first hit the Hot Country Songs top 10 with “See You Tonight,” which rose to No. 10 in March 2014.
