How Much Money Has Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas’ Generated?
The long-running chart-topper, which is close to eclipsing Mariah Carey’s record on the Billboard Hot 100, has lassoed millions in revenue.
Ella Langley's hit song "Choosin' Texas" has generated an estimated $13.9 million in revenue since its release in early October, according to Billboard. The song has been a global sensation, with more than 1.5 billion streams worldwide. Currently, "Choosin' Texas" holds the record for the second-longest chart-topping hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and the longest non-holiday hit of all time.
With 21 weeks and counting, it has surpassed other notable hits like Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" and Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road." In the United States alone, where the song has become a radio staple, "Choosin' Texas" has generated nearly $10.5 million in revenue. This total includes $6 million in global publishing royalties and $8 million in label revenue.
The song's success on terrestrial radio, particularly old-fashioned terrestrial radio, has played a significant role in driving this revenue.
