After being discovered by Red Steagall, McEntire signed a recording contract with Polygram/Mercury Records in 1975.

She had her first major hit as a solo artist with a remake of Patsy Cline's "Sweet Dreams" (1979).
McEntire branched out into acting and created her own television sitcom during the early 2000s. She didn't record or tour for nearly three years. In 2004, she returned to music with 2003's "I'm Gonna Take That Mountain". This was followed by 2004's "Somebody", which became her first number one hit since 1998. A collection of duet recordings spawned the number two hit with Kelly Clarkson "Because of You". In 2009, she returned with a new collection of songs including the number one single "Consider Me Gone". She entered the next decade with the number one single "Turn on the Radio" in 2011. In her 45-year career, McEntire has garnered 24 number one singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, the second most number one hits by a female artist behind Dolly Parton with 25.
