Morgan Wallen Breaks Record Held By Garth Brooks

Morgan Wallen just passed Garth Brooks for the most weeks with a #1 album on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.

Garth had a total of 173 weeks with an album at #1 over the course of his long career.

Morgan just broke that record in five years. Here’s how he got it done:

1. His first #1 was in August 2020 with his 2018 album “If I Know Me” . . . and he spent two weeks there.

2. Next came “Dangerous: The Double Album” which spent an incredible 97 weeks on top of the chart.

3. And now he’s on his 75th week at #1 with “One Thing at a Time”.

And this is all before his next album “I’m the Problem” drops . . . which is sure to vault Morgan into a lead that might never be topped.

In honour of Morgan surpassing Garth’s longstanding #1 album record, never forget that Morgan was once a contestant on the sixth season of “The Voice” back in 2014.

He was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.

Apparently, judges Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Shakira, and Usher didn’t like what they had to see and hear. But things worked out okay for Morgan in the end.

Never stop going after your dream. Even after celebrity judges tell you you’re not good enough. Keep going.
