Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem leads Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart dated Nov. 7 for the 51st nonconsecutive week. Wallen’s career total at No. 1 has risen to 237 weeks, extending his record across the chart’s 62-year history.
Wallen first topped the chart a little more than six years ago, on Aug. 15, 2020. The 237-week total has come in a comparatively short time, Billboard noted.
The chart debuted as Hot Country Albums in Billboard’s Jan. 11, 1964 issue, with Johnny Cash’s Ring of Fire (The Best of Johnny Cash) at No. 1. It was called Hot Country LP’s from 1968 to 1984.
