Langley, 27, has been heating up the charts for some time with her viral “Choosin’ Texas” single, which managed to beat Mariah Carey’s formidable Billboard Hot 100 record.

“Choosin’ Texas” recently became the longest-running No. 1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 list, surpassing Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which spent 22 weeks atop the chart.

After the historic achievement, Langley spoke out, gushing that she was speechless and couldn’t “find the words to help explain what’s going on in my brain.”

Last week at a show in Columbus, Ohio, Langley told the crowd, “I don’t think I’ve ever had more opinions on myself in my life than I have in this last year.”

The singer noted that she has been criticized for “the way I look, the way I speak, the way I dress, the way I move, the way I sing [and] the way I write.”

“The girl that they’re kind of picking on is the girl that got me where I’m sitting here today,” the hitmaker ultimately pointed out.
