Singer Oliver Anthony emerged out of nowhere this week to score a major social media hit with his folk song “Rich Men North of Richmond” — a rust-belt ode aimed squarely at uniparty D.C. elites. Now the singer has solidified his newfound celebrity status by reaching the No. 1 spot on iTunes.
In fact, another Oliver Anthony single “Ain’t Gotta Dollar” — which he released last year — has climbed to the No. 2 spot, giving the previously little-known Virginia singer the top two selling songs on the platform.
At one point, a third song — “I’ve Got to Get Sober” — also simultaneously entered the Top 10 on iTunes.

But wait, there’s more!
Oliver Anthony — a rural Farmer unknown just 48 hours ago — has THREE SONGS (!!!) in the Top 10.
The most famous musicians on earth often never achieve this.
