Jelly Roll Lands His Seventh Country Airplay No. 1 Hit With ‘Liar’

Jelly Roll achieves his seventh No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart as “Liar” rises 2-1 to the top of the ranking dated Feb. 22. It increased by 1% to 30.3 million impressions Feb. 7-13, according to Luminate.

The Nashville native co-authored “Liar” with Ashley Gorley, Ben Johnson and Taylor Phillips. Zach Crowell produced the song.

The track is the sophomore single from Jelly Roll’s LP Beautifully Broken, which bowed at No. 1 on Top Country Albums and the all-genre Billboard 200 last October, marking his initial leader on each list. His preceding set, Whitsitt Chapel, entered and peaked at Nos. 2 and 3 on the charts, respectively, in June 2023.

As “Liar” leads Country Airplay in its 14th week on the chart, Jelly Roll wraps his quickest run to No. 1. He previously took 21 weeks to reach the top with “I Am Not Okay” and “Halfway to Hell,” both in 2024.

All seven of Jelly Roll’s Country Airplay entries have gone on to top the chart, tying him with Kane Brown for the longest active No. 1 streak. Meanwhile, Brown is on the hunt for his eighth leader in a row, as his latest single, “Backseat Driver” (Zone 4/RCA Nashville), rebounds to its No. 22 best (7.9 million, up 5%).

Back ‘Home’ in Top 10

LOCASH returns to the Country Airplay top 10 as “Hometown Home” pushes 11-9 (17.2 million, up 4%). It’s the fourth top 10 for the duo of Preston Brust and Chris Lucas and first since “One Big Country Song,” which hit No. 2 in August 2020. The pair’s “I Know Somebody” ruled for a week in October 2016, after “I Love This Life” reached No. 2 that January.
