We're now more than halfway into 2018 so it's time to see where the most-played songs are in the world of country music and it's easy to see that we're in the midst of a transitional phase from one generation to the next as four of the Top 5 most-played country songs of 2018 so far come from artists who are still working on their debut albums. Jordan Davis, Kane Brown, Brett Young and Russell Dickerson have four of the Top 5 most-played singles so far. Luke Bryan is the only "established" superstar on this list. In fact, in the Top 20, we have nine artsits with hits from their debut projects. One of those, "Meant To Be" from Bebe Rexha, is the only song from a female artist on this list, something we consider a huge problem and a gap programmers need to fix as there are great female artists out there.
