Morgan Wallen has the No. 1 album in the United States with his latest offering, a two hour-long collection dubbed "I'm The Problem." Boasting a total of 493,000 units earned, the Tennessee native claims the year's biggest debut week for any album so far, per Luminate. "I'm The Problem's" massive opening numbers outpaced the Weeknd, who previously held the title of the biggest album of 2025, debuting at No. 1 in January with a staggering 490,000 units. Wallen's 37-song set also greatly impacted streaming platforms where it also holds the biggest numbers for any album in 2025 (462.63 million on-demand official streams), and the largest since Taylor Swift's "The Tortured Poets Department" entered with 891.37 million streams in its first week last year.
