On April 20, 2026, Apple Music’s US chart tells a story of country reclaiming the throne and hip-hop steadying its grip. Ella Langley’s “Dandelion” shoots straight to #1, a clear sign that the mainstream is hungry for fresh female country voices, not just arena bros. The data — drawn from Apple Music’s daily US streams — reveals what Americans actually play on repeat, not what critics hype. Justin Bieber’s “SWAG II” at #3 proves his pop dominance isn’t fading, while Kanye West’s “BULLY” at #5 shows controversy still sells. This isn’t a label-pushed playlist; it’s the unfiltered pulse of listeners hitting play on their phones. Apple Music measures paid subscriber streams, offering a direct line to what people choose to hear, not what’s forced on them.
Top 10 lists about this release
Curated by our entertainment editors. Built from critical consensus and community vote.

Ella Langley’s “Dandelion” conquered Apple Music’s US chart at #1, a stunning debut for a country newcomer that proves listeners are craving women who sing about real small-town grit, not just heartbreak ballads.

Don Toliver’s “OCTANE” holds at #2 — a woozy, psychedelic hip-hop record that’s become a streaming staple since its January release, cementing his rep as the genre’s most unpredictable storyteller.

Justin Bieber’s “SWAG II” at #3 shows he still rules the pop roost with a confident, synth-laden follow-up that blends arrogance with vulnerability, exactly what his massive fanbase wants.

Morgan Wallen’s “I’m The Problem” sits at #4, a brooding country anthem that has become a cultural cipher — fans stream it relentlessly, while critics argue over its themes of redemption and rebellion.

Kanye West’s “BULLY” lands at #5, a polarizing record that’s both a combative provocation and a slick production showcase, proving his ability to dominate the chart no matter the headlines.

BTS’s “ARIRANG” at #6 is their most direct Korean folk-inspired album yet, a risky move that’s paying off — US ARMY streams are fierce, but the album earns score for cultural authenticity, not just fandom.

Netflix’s “KPop Demon Hunters” soundtrack at #7 is a bizarre but powerful entry — a movie tie-in full of cameos that converts popcorn viewers into repeat streamers, blurring film and music charts.

Bruno Mars’s “The Romantic” at #8 lives up to its name — a lush, retro-R&B set that feels like a surprise Valentine, proving slow-burn romance still sells when delivered by a master showman.

Sabrina Carpenter’s “Man’s Best Friend” at #9 rides TikTok virality into the top 10, a playful pop record that uses the dog metaphor as a Trojan horse for clever, bite-sized relationship commentary.

Olivia Dean’s “The Art of Loving” rounds out the top 10 at #10, a jazzy, soulful debut that’s been quietly building streams since September, proving British R&B can crack the US mainstream with patience and grace.

This top 10 is a battle of heavyweights: country (Ella Langley, Morgan Wallen), hip-hop (Don Toliver, Kanye West), pop legacy (Justin Bieber), and global K-pop (BTS). The biggest surprise is Ella Langley’s leap to #1 — most country newcomers don't hit the top until weeks of streaming. The soundtrack for “KPop Demon Hunters” at #7 reveals how Netflix’s influence warps the chart. What this list shows: US listeners are split — loyal to album eras (Bruno Mars’ “The Romantic” at #8) and hungry for new faces. The absence of Latin or rock acts is striking. Expect more country infusions as summer approaches.
