Toby Keith is making an unexpected comeback on the Billboard charts this week, with his 2017 album The Bus Songs reappearing on the Comedy Albums chart. This surprising development follows a recent tribute TV special that celebrated the late country star’s legacy, prompting a surge in interest and streams of his work.
Despite being primarily known for his country music, Keith’s The Bus Songs has resurfaced at No. 10 on Billboard’s Comedy Albums chart. The album, which previously topped the chart, had spent over a year on the list, though not consecutively.
Released in 2017, The Bus Songs was not initially marketed as a comedy album. Instead, it features a collection of humorous country songs, distinguishing it from Keith’s usual repertoire and earning it a spot in the comedy genre’s rankings.
