Miley Cyrus has made a triumphant return to the music scene with a new hit single that has landed her on several Billboard charts. Teaming up with global superstar Beyoncé, the duo's collaboration on the track “II Most Wanted” from Beyoncé's latest album, Cowboy Carter, has quickly gained commercial success.

The song debuted at an impressive No. 3 on Billboard’s Country Digital Song Sales chart, marking Cyrus' first top 10 placement on this particular ranking. Despite not being primarily known for her country music, Cyrus' collaboration with Beyoncé has proven to be a winning formula.

During its first week of tracking, “II Most Wanted” sold 10,720 copies in the U.S., making it one of the top-selling country songs of the week. Notably, all three tracks that sold over 10,000 copies in the U.S. were by Beyoncé, showcasing her continued dominance in the music industry.

While “II Most Wanted” is Cyrus' first top 10 hit on the Country Digital Song Sales chart, it is her third appearance on the tally overall. Her previous singles, “The Climb” in 2010 and a collaboration with Dolly Parton on a rendition of “Wrecking Ball” in 2022, both peaked at No. 13 on the chart.

Beyoncé's new album has also made a significant impact on the Country Digital Song Sales chart, with the artist claiming six spots in the top 15. Notably, Beyoncé's track “Texas Hold ‘Em” has maintained its position at No. 1 for an impressive eighth consecutive week.
