Craig Morgan Reaches No.1 on iTunes Chart

This would not have been possible if Craig Morgan was not supported by his friend, Blake. The Voice judge rallied people into making Craig’s song “The Father, My Son, & the Holy Ghost” reach number 1 at the charts. It was a big feat for the singer since it was his first song to ever reach the top of the iTunes chart.

Shelton’s tweets managed to reach some of the Hollywood stars like Ellen DeGeneres, Carson Daly, Meghan Trainor, and more. Craig Morgan responded with a heartfelt thank you on his social media account:

“Wow! I’m so completely humbled by all the support the world has shown this song. Blake Shelton. You are an awesome friend and champion for country music. We love ya, and I cannot thank you enough. The support the entire entertainment community and music fans have shown is a testament to the love that country music embodies. This song is a God thing. My hope is that it reaches all who need to hear it. THANK YOU, everyone.”
