Tim McGraw debuts at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with "Southern Voice," a bow that establishes a first in the chart's 53-year history.

Becoming his 13th top 10,(that is top ten on the Billboard Top 200 for all of music) McGraw has now reached the top tier(top ten) with each of his Billboard 200 chart entries, a discography that dates to his sophomore set, "Not a Moment Too Soon," in 1994.

Prior to McGraw, no artists had sent their first 13 charted titles into the Billboard 200's top 10 since the survey's March 24, 1956, inception.

In setting the new mark, McGraw breaks a tie with an artist who posted his 12th top 10 in his first 12 tries 49 years ago. Between his 1957 arrival and 1960, Johnny Mathis notched 12 top 10s (counting three separate top 10 runs for "Merry Christmas" in 1958, 1959 and 1960 as one title). His 13th charted album, "I'll Buy You a Star," peaked at No. 38 in 1961.

    I just read this myself and was hoping someone would put this informtion on the board,thanks janet,it should be spread,everyone needs to know this. WTG Tim. I was so proud when I read this about Tim. yes,it would certainly be spread out if Carrie of Taylor did this. there was another thing that was mentioned about a no. 13 with Taylor,but cant recall what they said. it said Taylor and Tim were linked.

    Tim did this without the support from radio with his first single. Tim sold MORE than Brad in his first week even though Brad had a HUGE #1 single with Then.

    He sold more than Toby even though Toby had the support from radio with a number one song.

    In fact Toby's last two albums, 2008 and 2009 both only sold 90,000 the first week.
