This is the part of the chart where songs and artists get stuck and almost all of them ultimately run out of time and budgets for the promotion it takes to go much farther.
Why would anyone expend the money and energy on the extremely long shot these folks are taking?
Here's why:
15 months ago Kip Moore showcased for A&O clients at our annual pre-CRS seminar. It's taken more than a year, but it looks like this could be the week he notches his first #1 single.
Congrats, Kip! You give every aspiring future star hope.
It's been exciting to see so many newcomers topping the charts in the last year.
Indeed, there's "something about a #1," making the travails along the way, the long odds against you, worth it all.

Country music icon Ronnie Dunn’s newest solo CD debuts today through the Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® exclusive music program. The CD, Ronnie Dunn – Special Edition, is a powerful collection of 12 songs that Dunn first released in 2011, and includes an additional two previously unreleased bonus tracks. And because Ronnie Dunn and Cracker Barrel support America’s military personnel, a portion of the proceeds from sales of this CD will be donated to Wounded Warrior Project™. The CD is available for $11.99 exclusively at all Cracker Barrel locations and online at crackerbarrel.com.
That is another pay off to the trying drive up country's charts.
Once you've made it, even when your current releases no longer go all the way, you'll have a long life performing in smaller venues for die-hard fans who seem to never forget you.
And, finally, there's always Cracker Barrel.
