Most of this week's Billboard charts are dominated by artists who made their presence felt at the recent Grammy Awards.
But at the top of the singles chart is a song by a singer who's never even been nominated.
Her song Choose in Texas has been climbing the charts for months, and it's far and away the biggest country hit of the year so far.
This week, Choose in Texas has done something only three other songs have done before.
It tops the Hot 100 singles chart, the Hot Country Songs chart, and the Country Airplay chart simultaneously.
She's the first woman ever to pull off that trifecta.
Harry Styles' last album, Harry's House, won the Grammy for Album of the Year and spawned one of this decade's biggest hits with As It Was.
This week, his new song hits the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at number one.
It's the lead single from a forthcoming album called Kiss All the Time, Disco Occasionally.
The song is called Aperture, and it signals a more textured and electronic approach for the former One Direction star.
Aperture will face strong competition in the coming weeks, but for now, his new cycle is off to a chart-topping start.
