It was followed by “Dibs” and “Peter Pan,” which made her the first female country singer since Wynonna Judd to send her first three singles to the top of that chart. “Legends” is Ballerini’s fourth No. 1 single. Kelsea, her third studio album, and Ballerini, her companion acoustic album, was published in 2020. Subject to Change, her fourth studio album, was released in 2022.
