His reign at the top of Billboard charts continues.
This week, Morgan Wallen returns to the top of the Billboard 200 chart as I’m the Problem spends a 10th nonconsecutive week at #1. According to Billboard, he earned 136,000 equivalent album units in the United States over the last week, based on Luminate data.
Cumulatively, his three#1 albums including I’m the Problem, One Thing at a Time and Dangerous: The Double Album, have spent a total of 39 weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart, which ties him with Elton John for the fourth-most weeks at #1 among male artists in the chart’s history (dating back to March of 1956, when the chart began publishing on a weekly basis).
It finds him in the company of artists like Elvis Presley (67 weeks), Garth Brooks (52), Michael Jackson (51), John and Wallen (39 each), Harry Belafonte and Drake (37 each), who have also spent a significant amount of time in the top spot on that chart. The Beatles have the all-time record for most weeks at #1, with 132 across 19 #1 albums.
Not bad company, to say the least…
Billboard also reports that I’m the Problem has now spent 10 weeks at #1, One Thing at a Time stayed at the top for 19 nonconsecutive weeks in 2023-24 and Dangerous: The Double Album was tops for 10 straight weeks in 2021.
In total, only six acts, including Wallen, have at least three albums that have spent at least 10 weeks at #1, and he joins The Beatles and Elvis Presley (four such albums each); Whitney Houston, The Kingston Trio, Taylor Swift and Wallen (three each) to hold that record. Morgan is also the only act to spend at least 10 weeks at #1 with three consecutive full-length albums.
.@MorganWallen becomes the first act in Billboard history to spend at least 10 weeks at No. 1 with three consecutive full-length albums!

Coming in at 37 songs, Morgan’s album has dominated both radio and streaming this year with songs from I’m The Problem, and the tracklist includes features from fellow country artists Eric Church, Ernest and Hardy, as well as Morgan’s first major collaboration with a female artist with Canadian pop star Tate McRae on a duet called “What I Want.”
I have a lot of thoughts about it you can read HERE, but of course, this is already proving to be his biggest project yet, and somehow, he keeps managing to make it each one bigger and more successful. I personally believe it could’ve been narrowed down to a solid 14 songs, and that would’ve made it hard to argue that it wasn’t country, or at the very least, that it wasn’t good. Putting out almost 40 songs is great for boosting numbers and sales in 2025, but it’s also a great way to water down what could’ve been an otherwise really solid record.
I’ve made that point countless times in posts since the record came out, as have many others, but Morgan’s success with it is unprecedented, and it’s clear that the fans are into it and I don’t see I’m The Problem departing from one of the top spots on the Billboard 200 album chart anytime soon.
Morgan’s tour rolls into Cleveland, Ohio this weekend at Huntington Bank Field with Miranda Lambert as an opener and Ella Langley’s replacement is still to be announced after she shared this morning that she will be taking the rest of the month off from touring.
