In a remarkable feat, “Texas Hold ‘Em” also secured Beyoncé’s first-ever No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 Chart.
This global ranking, which assesses streaming and sales activity from over 200 territories worldwide, saw the track climb from No. 4 to the top spot within its second week of release, fueled by 59.6 million streams and 43,000 sales units.
This achievement follows closely on the heels of Beyoncé making history as the first Black woman to reach No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart with “Texas Hold ‘Em.”
The track, along with her other single “16 Carriages,” debuted as surprise releases in early February, announced during a Verizon commercial aired during Super Bowl LVIII. Both songs are set to feature on her forthcoming album, Renaissance: Act II, slated for release on March 29, confirming rumors of a country-inspired project.
