Dierks Bentley’s “Black” hit the top spot on the Mediabase radio chart this week, giving Dierks his 16th career No. one song. Dierks says every single he’s put out this year is an important part of the story of his album, Black, but this personal song anchors them all. Bentley says, “‘Black’ is the one that’s really the cornerstone of the whole project, and it’s about my wife. Watching this one rise to the top of the chart is extra sweet.”

• “Black” reaches the chart’s summit exactly one year after Bentley’s album of the same was released last May.
