Every week Billboard releases their Artist 100 chart and every week we are looking to see where our favorite country artists are on the chart. We love us some country music, but right now other genres are crushing it. The top country artist on the chart, Sam Hunt, is at the number 12 position.
Chris Stapleton has made a huge jump on the chart and might be our best hope at a top 10 artist next week. He moved from 34 to 17 this week. Zac Brown Band also made a huge leap, the biggest of any country artist on the chart in fact, going from 62 to 27. The 40s see three country artists, Luke Combs, Keith Urban and Brett Young.
Other artists on the Artist 100 include Jon Pardi, Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett and Blake Shelton among others.
