  • The Phenomenon of Morgan Wallen

    The Phenomenon of Morgan Wallen
    Oct 1 2024

    Born and raised in Sneedville, Tenn, country singer Morgan Wallen has been on a trajectory of stardom that many never would have imagined. Join us at the table as we discuss the phenomenon of cousin Morgan..

    What is it about Morgan Wallen? Why the stardom? How did he sell out 2 nights at Neyland Stadium?

    He’s been named Billboard’s Top Country Artist in 2021, 2022, and 2023 and maybe he’ll get that same title again for 2024.

    He competed on NBC's 'The Voice' in 2014, his coach was Usher: and Morgan was eliminated during The Playoffs. A year later in August 2015, he released 'Stand Alone,' his first EP, with debut studio album 'If I Know Me' arriving in April 2018. The album peaked at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 and spent 251 weeks on the chart. Its second single, "Up Down" with Florida Georgia Line, cracked the Hot 100 to reach No. 49.

    In addition to going six-times Platinum, seven songs from Dangerous have received new Platinum awards, such as the much-loved singles, ‘More Than My Hometown’ (five-times Platinum) and ‘Somebody's Problem’ (three-times Platinum).

    In March 2022, the album established the all-time record for longest duration in the number one spot (97 weeks) on Billboard's Country Albums chart

    Dangerous spent 86 weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart, breaking the record for the most weeks in the top 10 by a single artist.

    Wallen’s One Thing at a Time album, which houses 36 songs, opened atop Top Country Albums as well as the all-genre Billboard 200 with the largest streaming week ever for a country album

    One Thing at a Time had the most weeks at No. 1 among all albums since Adele’s 21 logged 24 nonconsecutive weeks atop the tally in 2011-12. One Thing at a Time debuted atop the chart dated March 18, 2023, and spent its first 12 weeks at No. 1 through early June.

    We had an amazing opportunity and a great time at the Neyland Stadium show in Knoxville, TN where he played two monumental nights totaling 156,161 fans across both nights, surpassing the record previously held by The Jackson 5 across three shows in 1984 (148,407).
