“I’m The Problem” Now Among Six Longest-Leading Country Airplay No. 1s, And Morgan Wallen Has Three Of Them

Morgan Wallen‘s “I’m the Problem” has made history by becoming one of the six longest-leading Country Airplay No. 1s, with the song reigning atop the chart for eight consecutive weeks. “I’m the Problem” is only the sixth song to claim No. 1 for eight or more weeks — and Wallen owns three of those hits, as his latest joins “You Proof” (10 weeks, 2022) and “Last Night” (eight weeks, 2023). The other three are Nate Smith’s “World on Fire” (10 weeks, 2023-24), Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett’s “It’s Five O’ Clock Somewhere” (eight weeks, 2003), and Lonestar’s “Amazed” (eight weeks, 1999). Wallen’s newest single being worked to country radio, “Just in Case,” rises one spot to reach No. 10 on this week’s chart, giving the Sneedville, Tennessee country superstar his landmark 20th Country Airplay Top 10 hit of his career, 17 of which have hit No. 1. Wallen’s “I Ain’t Coming Back,” featuring Post Malone, also reaches a new peak this week at No. 32. (Billboard)
