Well, he’s done it again. Morgan Wallen, country music’s crossover king, has officially shattered his own Billboard Hot 100 record, this time with 37 songs charting at once. Yep, thirty-seven. That’s one more than his previous high of 36, set just two years ago, and it puts him in a league of his own when it comes to dominating both country and mainstream music charts.
The new milestone comes on the heels of his latest album, I’m the Problem, which didn’t just debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, it bulldozed in with a whopping 493,000 equivalent album units. That’s the biggest first-week total of 2025 so far, and honestly, it’s hard to see anyone topping it anytime soon.
Almost Every Track from I’m the Problem Is Charting

Of the 37 songs Morgan Wallen has on the Hot 100 right now, 36 are from I’m the Problem. The lone outsider? Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” which features Morgan Wallen and currently sits comfortably at No. 19. It’s just more proof that Morgan Wallen isn’t boxed into one genre anymore, he’s a country star who’s just as at home next to Drake and Doja Cat as he is next to Luke Combs.
I’m the Problem Is More Than an Album—It’s a Streaming Juggernaut
Calling I’m the Problem a “hit” might be underselling it. It’s an absolute streaming beast. It’s 2025’s most-streamed album so far, and with 29 new tracks crashing onto the Hot 100 this week alone, Wallen’s career total has now hit a jaw-dropping 105 songs on the chart. That puts him in rare air, only the 21st artist ever to pull it off, and the first country artist to join the triple-digit club.
Let that sink in: Morgan Wallen isn’t just setting records for country music. He’s rewriting the rules for how country artists break into the mainstream.
Six Songs in the Top 10, Including a Brand-New No. 1
It’s not just the volume of songs that would be impressive on its own. Wallen’s also staking a claim to the top of the chart. He’s got six tracks in the Hot 100’s top 10, including a No. 1 debut with “What I Want,” a pop-country collab with Tate McRae. It’s his fourth career No. 1—and McRae’s first.
Here’s a quick rundown of the rest of the top-tier lineup:
-
“Ain’t That Country” – No. 3
-
“Whiskey Season” – No. 5
-
“Drive You Crazy” – No. 6
-
“Still Hurts” – No. 8
-
“Every Memory of You” – No. 10
From slow-burn heartbreakers to arena-ready anthems, Wallen is showing off his full range, and fans clearly can’t get enough.
Breaking Records Only Morgan Wallen Could Break
Maybe the wildest part of this whole thing? Wallen is chasing his tail when it comes to records. Back in 2023, One Thing at a Time put 36 songs on the Hot 100, which was unheard of at the time. Now, he’s topped that with 37. It’s hard not to wonder if he’s the only artist capable of one-upping himself like this.
That kind of dominance doesn’t just happen. It takes an obsessive fanbase, clever timing, and a release strategy built for the streaming age. Wallen figured out how to make the most of all three.
Country Music, But Make It Global
Wallen’s success doesn’t just mark a personal win, it signals a shift in how country music is viewed, especially on a global stage. Artists like Taylor Swift and Kacey Musgraves have crossed over by leaning more into pop. Wallen, on the other hand, is dragging country with him into the mainstream, trap beats and all, without ditching its core values.
He might polish his production, layer in pop hooks, or team up with unexpected collaborators, but the heart of the music stays true: heartbreak, small-town roots, drinking stories, and songs that make you feel something.
Now that Morgan Wallen’s got another mountain under his belt, the big question is: what’s he going to do next? A massive world tour feels inevitable, and you can bet he’ll be headlining major festivals, maybe even dipping into Grammy territory, or at least landing more high-profile collabs outside the country world.
With the way he’s blending genres and smashing records, don’t be surprised if we look back in a few years and realize we were watching one of the biggest stars of the decade take off in real time.
Final Thoughts: Morgan Wallen’s Breaking More Than Records—He’s Changing the Game
Morgan Wallen’s 37 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 aren’t just some quirky trivia fact. It’s a sign of where music is going. In an era ruled by playlists, TikTok virality, and 30-song albums, Wallen has figured out how to rise above the noise and bring country music with him.
I’m the Problem may be the title, but right now, Wallen is the solution to the country’s mainstream breakthrough. And whether you’re a diehard fan or a casual listener, it’s hard not to be impressed by the numbers—and the music.
