Luke Combs is nominated for four awards at the 2020 Billboard Music Awards: the Billboard Chart Achievement Award, Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist and Top Country Album for his Platinum-certified, global No. 1 record, What You See Is What You Get. The awards ceremony will be broadcast on NBC on Wednesday, October 14 at 8:00 p.m. ET/7:00 p.m. CT.
These recognitions are just the latest in a series of groundbreaking and historic years for Combs, who won two awards last week at the 55th Academy of Country Music Awards—Album of the Year (What You See Is What You Get) and Male Artist of the Year—and is also nominated for six awards at the 54th CMA Awards including Entertainer of the Year.
Moreover, Combs will release his anticipated new deluxe album, What You See Ain’t Always What You Get, Oct. 23 on River House Artists/Columbia Nashville (pre-order/pre-save here). The extended edition will feature all 18 songs from What You See Is What You Get as well as five new tracks including “Without You,” a new collaboration with Amanda Shires. See below for complete track list.
Continuing his triumphant run at country radio, Combs’ single, “Lovin’ On You,” is currently No. 1 on the Mediabase/Country Aircheck chart for the second-consecutive week while also spending its fourth week atop the Billboard Country Airplay chart. This is his ninth-consecutive No. 1 single—a first on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart—as well as his eighth single to spend multiple weeks atop the chart, sixth-consecutive, multi-week No. 1 and fourth single to spend four or more weeks at No. 1. Combs also recently made history as the first artist ever to have their first two studio albums spend 25 weeks or more at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart—breaking Taylor Swift’s previously held record at 24 weeks. The achievement comes as What You See Is What You Get topped the chart for the 25th time earlier this summer, while his 2017 debut, This One’s For You, has spent 50 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1—tying the record for the longest reign atop the chart with Shania Twain’s Come On Over in 1997.
Additional notable achievements and recognitions:
Awarded three iHeartRadio Music Awards: Country Artist of the Year, Country Album of the Year (What You See Is What You Get) and Country Song of the Year (“Beautiful Crazy”).
What You See Is What You Get enjoyed the largest streaming week ever for a country album with 74 million on-demand streams upon its release in November 2019. It also achieved the biggest first week of album streams ever for a country artist on Apple Music and was the first country album ever to hit No. 1 on the platform’s U.S. overall albums chart, while also setting a new global record for first-week streams for a country album at Spotify and breaking the Amazon Music record for more first-week streams than any other country album debut.
