Beyoncé’s new single, “Texas Hold ‘Em,” has debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.
The singer also clocks in at No. 9 with her second entry, “16 Carriages.”
According to Billboard, the feat makes the global superstar the first woman and first Black woman to have topped both the Hot Country Songs and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs since the lists began in 1958.
“Texas Hold ‘Em” is also Beyoncé’s first leader on Country Digital Song Sales and her 11th No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales list. It holds the No. 2 spot on the all-genre Hot 100 chart.

The song replaces Zach Bryan and Kacey Musgraves’ “I Remember Everything,” which had been sitting at the top spot since September.
Since releasing both tracks as a surprise during the Super Bowl on Feb. 11, “Texas Hold ‘Em” has been promoted to country radio, per an email announcement by Columbia Nashville, Billboard said.
