Chris Young and Kane Brown are spending a second consecutive week at the top of the Country Aircheck/Mediabase country radio chart with their hit song, “Famous Friends,” which also takes the No. 1 spot on Billboard's country radio chart this week. The single is only the 5th to spend multiple weeks at No. 1 in 2021 and marks the 12th career No. 1 for Chris and the 6th for Kane.
Chris tells us: ["Always excited to celebrate a hit on Country radio but especially this song right here, 'Famous Friends,' going number one with my buddy Kane Brown. Just an amazing way to go right into the summer. Finally, getting to perform this back out on the road for people and being able to, you know, announce that it’s the number one song is just one of the most amazing things. So, so proud of this one. So thank you to everybody for listening, loving it."] SOUNDCUE (:22 OC: . . . listening, loving it.)
In addition to the multi-week No. 1 for “Famous Friends,” it took home the trophy for Collaborative Video of the Year at the CMT Music Awards last month.
