Dustin Lynch is closing out 2021 with a bang as his latest single, “Thinking ‘Bout You,” featuring MacKenzie Porter, reached top spot on both the Billboard Country Airplay and Mediabase Country Airplay charts. 

The buzzed-about duet, which topped the Billboard Country Airplay chart for two weeks, marks Lynch‘s eighth U.S. and second Canadian No.1 at Country radio. It’s also his third career chart-topper as a songwriter. 

“Thinking ‘Bout You” is a monumental No.1 for Porter, who is celebrating her first U.S. No.1 and and fourth chart-topper in Canada.

 

Time To Celebrate

“Two weeks! So thrilled to have been able to share this ride with MacKenzie [Porter],” shares Lynch. “The journey to the top of the charts is always a team effort, but it’s even more fun having another name alongside your own to celebrate these moments with. And speaking of celebrating – get ready to party with us in 2022!”

“I’ve dreamt about this moment my entire life. I seriously can’t believe it,” adds Porter.

Lynch and Porter recently joined forces to perform the song at a number of high profile events, including the CCMAs and on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!

In October, Lynch made headlines when he shared the stage with a 7-year-old fan to perform the duet at the Stampede of Speed Music Fest. Watch the adorable moment HERE.
