REXHA AND FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE ARE “MEANT TO BE” MAKING HISTORY
CROSSOVER COLLABORATION CONTINUES TO REIGN #1 ON BILLBOARD
HOT COUNTRY SONGS CHART FOR 12 WEEKS RUNNING; TOP 10-AND-RISING ON
ALL-GENRE BILLBOARD HOT 100 CHART
—
MULTI-PLATINUM superstar duo FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE continue
to elevate their elite status as world-class powerhouse entertainers driving
the history-making “Meant to Be” collaboration with BEBE REXHA into
uncharted territory with their PLATINUM-certified single.
“Meant to Be” dominates the #1 spot for 12 weeks running on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, and nabs Rexha a record for being the longest-leading chart-topper for a song by a lead female. The unprecedented feat only adds to FGL’s record-breaking rank as “Meant to Be” also charges the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 chart at Top 10-and-rising. FGL last cracked Top 5 on the chart with their breakout smash hit “Cruise” in 2013.
FGL’s Tyler Hubbard and Rexha, alongside Josh Miller and David Garcia, penned “Meant to Be,” which Billboard describes as “the ultimate midpoint not only between their respective styles, but for pretty much all of 2018 pop music: Its piano hook is EDM, its alternately snapping and skittering beat is hip-hop, its vocal twang is country and its chorus is smooth pop-soul.” Surpassing 478 million global streams to date, it continues to master both Country and Pop chart airplay simultaneously while the adjoining free-and-easy music video has garnered more than 207.8 million views.

GLOBAL STREAMS EXPLODE OVER 478 MILLION
Riding a meteoric career high of milestone triumphs
jam-packed with colossal headlining tours – like THE SMOOTH STADIUM TOUR 2017
(which featured Backstreet Boys, Nelly and Chris Lane) – in addition to
all-star collaborations – including their 13th #1 “God, Your Mama, And Me”
(featuring Backstreet Boys), The Chainsmokers’ “Last Day Alive,” Jason Derulo
and Hank Williams, Jr.’s “All My Rowdy Friends Are Here on Monday Night,”
and most recently Morgan Wallen’s “Up Down” plus Hailee Steinfeld and Alesso’s
“Let Me Go" (featuring watt) – FGL continues to set the bar as top-shelf
trailblazers. Inspired by their unmatched chart-jumping last year, the BMLG
Records’ showstoppers have been in the studio working on the successor to their
PLATINUM-certified DIG YOUR ROOTSmusical evolution which propelled
3X PLATINUM-certified lead single, “H.O.L.Y.” Crushing boundaries and
redefining what’s possible, FGL fans can expect bold new music this year.
