Jason Aldean, Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs have made Billboard history with their latest singles.

According to Billboard, Aldean’s “Try That In a Small Town” tops the chart, with Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” and Luke Combs’ “Fast Car” in the second and third spots, respectively. It’s the first time in the chart’s 65-year history that the top three spots are country artists/songs,

Aldean’s song — written by Kelley Lovelace, Neil Thrasher, Tully Kennedy and Kurt Michael Allison — was originally released in May, but began ascending to the top last month after its video attracted controversy.

In late June, Wallen and Combs had made history on the charts with their respective singles reaching the top two spots. That feat marked the first time in 42 years country hits reached the top two spots on the Billboard Hot 100, following Eddie Rabbit and Dolly Parton in 1981.
