Her other new single, '16 Carriages,' also gains recognition by securing the No. 9 spot on the country music chart.

As Beyoncé continues to break barriers and redefine standards, her impact on the country music scene is undeniable and inspiring.
To add to her accolades, Beyoncé joins the ranks of Justin Bieber as one of the few artists to lead multiple chart categories, with him topping eight hybrid song charts.
