Have two black artists ever had back-to-back #1 hits on country before I wonder? 'Cause if this follows Darius Rucker to the top, that could be something we haven't seen before. I think Kane Brown and Jimmie Allen had back to back #1s last year with "Homesick" and "Make Me Want To" around a year ago Luke hosts CCUSA this weekend so it’s likely his push week next week. UMG Nashville is pushing "Down to One" next week, after Darius. Luke might get two weeks at #1 as well. I'm not worried about "Just the Way" -- its gains have been really good every since taking off inside the top 30 and it can wait for Luke.

'Cause if this follows Darius Rucker to the top, that could be something we haven't seen before. “Best Shot” and “Lose It” hit #1 back-to-back in 2018 and as the comment on the last page mentioned, “Make Me Want To” and “Homesick” hit #1 back-to-back last year. Also, when this gets to #1 how many black people will have hit #1 on country radio? I believe Blanco would be the 6th but I may be missing someone.

I didn't even bother to look into my theory because I figured that it had to be uncommon like when women so rarely replace each other at #1, but I see that it has ironically happened not once but twice in recent history, lol.

If this was sports, Parmalee would win the “Comeback” player of the year award for sure. Never thought they’d have a hit again, let along a big one like this.

Any word on if this will be sent to Top 40/Hot AC? I know the label tried crossing over “Carolina”. I think “Just The Way” would have a better chance of success at those formats then Carolina did.

Congratulations to Parmalee for achieving their 2nd #1 and first #1 since "Carolina" topped the charts back in December 2013. This is Blanco's first #1 for airplay, and his 2nd #1 hit overall for charts combined as he topped Hot Country Songs with "The Git Up" (2019).

I like both Parmalee and Blanco, and I enjoy this song, so happy for this #1! Hoping Parmalee is going to release another album. (Please no more Hotdamalama kind tho...)

Not sure that a remix was even needed for this to go to pop/hot ac, but it’s okay. The new 2nd verse, with the line “how do you fit all that a** is them Levi’s” is a line I wasn’t expecting. The song may pull a “The Bones” and regain its bullet tomorrow and not go recurrent.

The song may pull a “The Bones” and regain its bullet tomorrow and not go recurrent. "Just the Way" did in fact not go recurrent on Mediabase this week...despite it losing 16 spins and over 100k in total audience. It was razor close but it appears somehow it re-gained its bullet or broke even in points. Assuming Mediabase doesn't pull it in the next hour or two, which did happen back in February of 2014 to "Whatever She's Got" by David Nail, so never say never lol. In Nail's case, however, his single was clearly done and should have been sent recurrent in the afternoon update. Parmalee/Blanco Brown have been breaking even in gains this week and looked like a contender to do what "The Bones" did last year and stay on the chart in what should have been its third-consecutive bulletless week.

This is interesting — Mediabase appears to have sent “Just the Way” recurrent this afternoon, despite regaining its bullet last week. Parmalee and Blanco Brown gained over 300 points in last Sunday’s finalized chart after going two straight weeks without a bullet. ”Just the Way” lost 16 spins and 100k but gained total points and got its bullet back, so it shouldn’t have gone recurrent. Mediabase rules are pretty simple and straightforward: any single that goes without a bullet for three consecutive weeks, that is below #1, goes recurrent. Parmalee didn’t do that though since they got a bullet back last week, so perhaps it’s rectified in the evening update but as of now, “Just the Way” is gone from the chart.

Huh I just clicked on the link and it shows "Just The Way" there as it seems like the evening update brought this one back.

It was likely a computer system issue, which is why there are multiple Sunday updates and led me to believe that would happen lol. I would prefer this one to be gone but my OCD wouldn’t allow it.
