As was expected, Morgan Wallen's blockbuster new album, I'm the Problem, has debuted at the pinnacle of the Billboard 200, with the 37-song opus also earning the biggest US unit sales week of 2025, surpassing The Weeknd's Hurry Up Tomorrow.
The latter moved 490,000 equivalent units in its first week, while I'm the Problem has shifted a total of 493,000, highlighting Wallen's continued all-genre chart dominance.
I'm the Problem, which arrived on May 16th, becomes the ‘Whiskey Glasses’ singer-songwriter's third album to top the Billboard 200, following Dangerous and One Thing At A Time.
2023's One Thing At A Time, which spawned hits such as ’You Proof’, ‘Cowgirls’ and the record-breaking Hot 100 smash, ‘Last Night’, spent 19 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1. 2021's Dangerous, meanwhile, held onto the crown for 10 frames.
With Morgan Wallen's star-power at an all-time high, and with an array of tracks from I'm the Problem enjoying sizeable streaming booms and going immediately viral across social media, such as ‘What I Want’ with Tate McRae, ‘I Got Better’ and ‘TN’, it'll be fascinating to see whether the ‘Love Somebody’ hitmaker's latest offering can outpace One Thing At A Time's reign atop the Billboard 200.
As well as cementing itself as one of the biggest records of 2025 so far in the US, Morgan Wallen's fourth album has been making a splash internationally, with I'm the Problem becoming the Sneedville native's first UK No. 1 and his second No. 1 in Australia.
