Morgan Wallen just pulled off one of the rarest feats in modern Billboard history — claiming three of the top five spots on the Hot 100 simultaneously. That’s right, the 32-year-old country megastar currently holds the chart with “What I Want” (featuring Tate McRae), “Just In Case”, and “I’m The Problem”, all sitting comfortably in the top 5. It’s a record-breaking move that proves Wallen isn’t just the face of country music — he’s dominating the entire pop landscape, too.
It’s a staggering flex for an artist whose controversies might’ve derailed someone else’s career years ago. Instead, Wallen’s momentum has only grown stronger, with I’m The Problem — the album that houses two of those singles — still holding the No. 1 spot on the Top Country Albums chart six weeks after debut. And he’s not stopping there.
While I’m The Problem continues to lead the country pack, Wallen is doing the impossible further down the same chart. At No. 2, you’ll find One Thing At A Time, and sitting at No. 3 is Dangerous: The Double Album. That’s three albums, all at the top, all from the same artist — again. Wallen has managed this triple-header before, but it remains a rare and wildly impressive feat in any genre.
But wait — there’s more. This week, Wallen’s debut album If I Know Me jumped back into the top 10, climbing from No. 12 to No. 8. That means Wallen is now the only artist on the chart with four albums simultaneously in the top 10 — and every single one of them has been a No. 1 at some point. Dangerous alone spent a historic 97 weeks at the top. Even If I Know Me, which took two years to peak, has now spent multiple weeks in the crown.
Why Did Morgan Wallen Walk Off SNL?
Wallen’s latest streak comes just a few months after his now-infamous walk-off from the Saturday Night Live stage in March, when he left mid-goodbye without acknowledging the cast, sparking another wave of backlash and memes. But as always with Wallen, the controversy didn’t derail the music. If anything, it added fuel.
He addressed the incident a month later on the Sundae Conversations podcast, brushing it off with, “I was just ready to go home. I’d been there all week.” He followed it up by turning the viral moment into merch, launching a “Get Me To God’s Country” line inspired by his post-show Instagram story.
