The week ending on October 22 saw \"Housewife\" amass an impressive 22.9 million chart-eligible streams in the United States, as reported by Luminate. This marks McRae's highest-charting song as a lead act, surpassing her previous No. 3 peaks with \"Greedy\" and \"Tit for Tat.\" The artist has previously reached No. 1 as the featured act on Morgan Wallen's \"What I Want.\" McRae's prior top achievement was \"Tit for Tat,\" which peaked at No. 2 in 2025. Her previous highest ranking as a lead act was \"Tit for Tat,\" which peaked at No. 2 in 2025. Previously, McRae's best position as a lead act was \"Tit for Tat,\" which reached No. 2 in 2025. Her initial appearance on the survey was in 2020 with \"You Broke Me First\" peaking at No. 29, and her first top 10 came in 2023 with \"Greedy,\" which landed at No. 6. \"Greedy\" has climbed to the No. 1 spot on Streaming Songs, pushing Ella Langley's \"Choosin' Texas\" down to No. 4 on the latest chart, with its 26th week at the top position. \"Choosin' Texas\" currently occupies the No. 4 slot on the latest chart, with 20 million streams, representing a 1% increase. Concurrently, \"Housewife\" has claimed the No. 2 position on the multimetric Billboard Hot 100, McRae's highest charting song as a lead artist, outpacing her previous No. 3 peaks with \"Greedy\" and \"Tit for Tat.\" McRae is currently set to release her fourth studio album, which does not yet have a confirmed release date.
