It's not just the old-timers who are keeping traditional country music alive. The current Billboard 200 features eight albums to repeat if you're longing for a "real" country music sound.
In total, there are 34 country albums on this week's (Sept. 20, 2025) chart. Morgan Wallen has four of them, but nobody is going to put him in the same sub-genre as George Strait and Chris Stapleton .
These are albums that have persevered. Half the list has remained on the trade outlet's weekly list of all-genre albums for over 200 weeks. One album has been a mainstay for all of a decade!
After the eight traditional country albums still in the Billboard 200 you'll find a quick list of all 34 in the country genre.
