The multi-genre superstar has delivered a number of hugely successful tunes so far in 2025, and as his latest track “Amen” with Shaboozey arrives, he scores back-to-back success stories on several tallies. The Grammy nominee nearly managed to trade one winner for another on one of Billboard’s most competitive rankings, but misses out on doing so by just one space, as a relative newcomer proves the incredible popularity of his breakout tune. Shahboozey and Jelly Roll’s “Amen” Shaboozey recruited Jelly for his track “Amen,” which is featured on the deluxe edition of his breakout album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going . “Amen” is a quick bestseller, and it arrives with 6,500 pure purchases, according to Luminate. That’s enough to help the tune debut at No. 2 on the Digital Song Sales chart. Jelly Roll Almost Replaced Himself at No. 1 Jelly nearly replaces himself at No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales ranking this frame. Last week, he appeared at the top with “Hard Fought Hallelujah,” his collaboration with Brandon Lake. That composition didn’t start out as a duet, as the Christian cut had already been dominating genre-specific rankings for quite some time before an updated version brought Jelly into the fold, at which point and it quickly became the most popular in America. Now, his is the most popular version of the cut, so he earns credit on the Billboard lists. This frame, “Hard Fought Hallelujah” slips from No. 1 to No. 3, so Jelly occupies two of the three highest positions on the Digital Song Sales tally. “Ordinary” by Alex Warren Runs the Show After sitting in third place just a few days ago, “Ordinary” by Alex Warren returns to the summit on the Digital Song Sales roster. The track earns its second stay on the throne in its ninth turn on the list of the bestselling songs in America. “Amen” Debuts at No. 1 While “Amen” doesn’t manage to conquer the Digital Song Sales chart, it does lead one similar list. Shaboozey and Jelly Roll open their collaboration at No. 1 on the Country Digital Song Sales tally. “Amen” also launches at No. 23 on the Hot Country Songs list and No. 77 on the Hot 100.
