Two country artists who are no strangers to the pinnacle of the Billboard Hot 100 — Morgan Wallen and Ella Langley — have teamed up for a new collaboration.
The two debuted their duet “I Can’t Love You Anymore” with a performance during Wallen’s stadium show in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on April 18, as part of his Still the Problem Tour.
“Ella wrote this song and sent it me about a month ago and I loved it,” Wallen told the Tuscaloosa crowd, before adding that the song would be released April 24 and welcoming Langley back to the stage after she had opened the show.
Prior to Wallen and Langley debuting the song, it seems Langley may have teased it in the official video for her hit “Choosin’ Texas.” At the end of the video, Langley rides away in a vehicle that has a Tennessee license plate (Wallen is from Tennessee) and the initials “ICLYA” emblazoned on the license plate. Fan sleuths quickly surmised that the plate referred to the song title “I Can’t Love You Anymore.”
Langley has a stranglehold on the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 charts at the moment, with her album Dandelion debuting at No. 1 atop the albums chart and her smash “Choosin’ Texas” spending seven weeks (so far) at the top of the Hot 100. Wallen has notched four No. 1 Hot 100 hits to date, including the 16-week No. 1 “Last Night” in 2023. He’s also had three albums top the all-genre Billboard 200.
Langley is set to join several of Wallen’s tour stops this year, and recently, during his underplay at Nashville venue The Pinnacle to celebrate his new SiriusXM radio channel, he welcomed Langley to the stage to join him on a rendition of “Sand in My Boots.”
