Sneedville, Tennessee native and reigning CMA entertainer of the year Morgan Wallen has been breaking chart records with regularity over the past few years as he’s evolved from a top country music hitmaker to a multi-genre hitmaker and musical supernova, on the strength of projects including Dangerous: The Double Album and his 2023 project One Thing at a Time. On Friday (May 16), he aims to add to his arsenal of top-selling albums with his new project I’m The Problem, a 37-song project that features collaborations with Tate McRae, Eric Church, HARDY, ERNEST and more. He’s already released a slate of songs from the project, including “Love Somebody,” “Lies Lies Lies,” “I’m The Problem” and “Superman.” With the new set, he aims to add to his list of chart milestones.
In March, Wallen became the only singular act with two albums (or even one album) with at least 100 weeks in the top 10 on the Billboard 200 chart. Also among the records he has broken is one previously held by Garth Brooks. Wallen’s One Thing at a Time broke the record for the most weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for a country album, surpassing the record set by Brooks’ 1991 album Ropin’ The Wind.
Along the way, Wallen has notched a trio of Billboard Hot 100 chart leaders (with “Last Night,” “Love Somebody” and the Post Malone collab “I Had Some Help”) and 17 Country Airplay chart leaders. He’s also spearheaded massive headlining tours including his One Night at a Time tour, which touted 87 shows, 10 countries and 3 continents, playing to over 3 million fans along the way. This week, in addition to releasing the new album, he’ll headline his inaugural weekend of his Sand in My Boots Festival in Alabama, not long before he launches his I’m the Problem Tour in June, starting with two shows at NRG Stadium in Houston.
In addition to his own hits, Wallen has contributed to writing hits for artists including Keith Urban and Kane Brown.
