I don't know if you guys heard or not, but... And ladies and gentlemen, that is all it took. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? A goat in this music industry that goes by the name of Aubrey Ground once said an analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio, but I digress.

Aubrey said, my peers are a talented group, but even if you take all of their statistics and and carry the two, even if you rounded up the numbers and rounded up the troops, there's still nothing they could really do. It's too bad reality checks. Don't cover the balances due whenever it's time to recoup. Now, ladies and gentlemen, the reason why I'm going over this to why I am is because essentially Morgan Wallin has went insane.

as far as astronomical numbers putting him as the number one most listened to musician in the world as far as on planet earth if we're talking in totality his body of work i'm the problem not only went number one out the gate selling 490 000 copies first week but it's also outselling the entire top 10 debut week. But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? The reason why I'm covering it like this is because this man was caught in 4K using the N-word.

I know that ain't who I think it is. You made me thinking to yourself, was he talking about Nutella? You know who doesn't love some Nutella? You know what I'm saying? Nah, it wasn't that N-word. Was he talking about nothing was the same? No, I don't think he's a Drake fan like that or they would have probably made a track. you know what i'm saying at some point he used another n word ladies and gentlemen to say the

n word in 4k put out an album in 2025 and still have the number one album let me tell you something you guys see that's the problem but i digress as this man also made two tracks with little dirk and those were phenomenal to the plane where i would say those are some of my favorite country slash hip-hop collabs I've ever seen in life. I've ever heard in life. Broadway girls are still a top five, top three hip hop slash country collab. Now with that out the way, we have to get into Morgan Wallet and his latest album, Omniprogram, because as far as this being released under UMG,

unequivocally taking their musical market share from 40 plus to 65%. I think y'all can start to understand. why i put so much emphasis so much emphasis on numbers as far as engagement because when it comes to quality it is not core it doesn't correlate with the amount of sales just because you sell a lot does not mean you make high quality just because you don't sell a lot means you make it it doesn't mean you make absolute garbage the two don't correlate sometimes it does for morgan walling i believe the music that he makes it so high quality that he's able to get away with these egregious acts i know that ain't who i think

it is 37 tracks in an hour of 57 minutes from a man that said the N-word and the universe could care less the universe could care less as when it comes to on the problem it sold 490,000 first week as a country album so i think it's going to be around for quite some time as one thing at a time which is his album title not to be confused with what i'm saying he can't his second album, well not second, but the other album on this chart, that's the fourth most play album in the world. One Thing at a Time also benefited from the release of I'm the Problem. Y'all want to know when one thing at a time came out, one thing at a time came out March 3rd, 2023.

But then you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So not only is he outselling the top 10, but he threw another album from 2023 in the mix. And not only is it in the mix, it's the fourth most play out. in the world. Ladies and gentlemen, we're not even talking about his album that he just released. So anyways, y'all going to say I'm glazing. I'm just letting y'all know when they're objectively speaking, when I look at analytics and dissect certain things as far as the music

industry and you dominate the field like this in a Taylor Swift-like fashion as far as ultimately putting up numbers that nobody can even come close to. Forget about reciprocating the numbers. They can't even combat the numbers with their engagement, right? So that's why I always reiterate the amount of sales does not equal the amount of quality. The two don't correlate. But to be fair, for Morgan Wallen, I do believe he makes high quality country music. So with that being said, you're probably wondering, how many tracks does he have on the charts? Well, he currently has eight.

And as far as chart data predictions for May 31st, he is seemingly going to have, let me see, One, two, three, four, five. I feel like LeBron right now. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten. He's, okay, so he's projected to have even more tracks on the chart. So right now he has eight. He's projected to have ten on the charts as far as chart dated for May 31st. So the reason why I'm breaking it down like this is just to let you know the immense impact that he's having on the masses.

Because over here at notorious mass effect, we covered the gaming and music industry in a way that we break down who is out here actually effective. in the masses pun intended so also when it comes to his overall status in the music industry people already knew that this album was going to do phenomenal on the charts he had 158 weeks on Billboard 200 top 10 he has the number one Billboard album um but he has the number one he's number one on billboard's top 200 albums already said that and then as far as his last album that came in that came out in 23 that has spent a total of a hundred weeks on Billboard 200 as a top 10 album he holds the record for the most weeks at number one 19 nine a non consecutive for a country album surpassing Garth Brooks with

Rope in the Win that was 18 weeks so safe to say Morgan Wallin is probably one of the most impactful musicians of all time which is why last year when the what I think is the most objective award show as far as the Billboard Music Award show when they came out and said that Morgan Wallin was the most listened to male artists. It made all the sense in the world. And of course, the most female, the most listened to female artist was obviously big, big T. When he ain't talking about him, we're talking about Taylor Swift.

So anyways, this one hurt my heart because, you know, this is my favorite artist. And this is why I referenced him at the beginning of the segment. But as far as the domination on the Billboard charts, placing all 36 tracks from one thing at a time on Hot 100, way all the way back in uh 2023 is when he broke this record right in 20203 he all when he broke that record he also um overcame drake's previous record of 27 tracks so very interesting how um this album one thing at a time is showcasing how well i was the saying in 20203 it's that's that must that must be a typo because saying one thing at a time 36 tracks one thing at a time came out did come out in 23. I'm tripping. I'm getting jumbled up by my own analytics. That's crazy.

So anyways, with that being said, he definitely overtook Drake in 2023 as far as breaking the record of having the most tracks from a body of work on the charts, basically showcasing how his fans don't just listen to the first five songs and then come back to it later. They listen to the whole album multiple times. Time and time again, they are going to press play on a person who said the end word. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going to?

Sorry, I just had to throw the end there. Every time I got to let y'all know, because y'all let us know about certain other individuals that do egregious acts and they make great music. So I got to let you know that your idols also do some egregious things that we just let pass. So anyways, that video happened back in 2021, by the way. So it's not like, you know, it's not like people ain't been. It's not no recent controversy.

People just heard it. It was like, all right. That's just them acting like. people right like nah we should be sure we should keep supporting him but anyways all jokes aside i do believe morgan wallen puts out very high quality music and that's probably one of the reasons why his fan base keeps coming back time and time again because i always say when it comes to sales and quality they don't correlate but for morgan wallin i do believe he puts out high quality and obviously objectively speaking he definitely has the numbers to back up the the amount of high quality

that he's putting out now as far as morgan wallen i don't think he's on tour i think he should be going on tour at some point uh let me see yeah the album's out but i don't know when he's actually going to go on tour i don't think at any point in time because he probably oh actually i'm tripping okay so he has a 2025 tour titled i'm the problem tour that he's been on okay i've already covered it that's why i wasn't sure so i didn't know if this was over or not because I remember it. Let me see if I covered this. Morgan Wallen. Yeah, I covered it. So I literally covered this. Let me see. I'm the problem.

Literally put it, put Tor in parentheses. That's why you should write this file. Sorry, I'm covering everything. So anyways, yeah, Morgan Wallin went on an anticipated 2025. I'm the problem tour. And then what else? What else? I was just seeing it. He was having a great tour. The ticket prices varied starting at 186. Goodness, that boy bringing in.

that he bringing in Fettuccini he came the heels of 24 legal issues oh I do remember talking about his legal issues because if you all didn't know just to rejog your memory are the other things that he got in trouble with he had some DUI

obstacles that he had to overcome in the education program right and then with that being said I'm the problem was a great tour a great title for his tour coming off of all the instances that he's been um that he's found himself in as far as combating with the law so overall i will say morgan wallam is currently one of the most popular artists in the world and as far as this album only the foreseeable future would be able to tell how long it stays at number one and

how long and will it be able to reciprocate that amount of success that one thing at a time had because if you think about that album that album sold how much is that sell that sold 500,000 first week so when it comes to this album selling around 490 000 it's a it's a little lower than one thing at a time but obviously when it comes to the current state of the economy you can kind of understand how people don't have exposureable income and when you stream something you need it you need like 1400 streams just equivalent one album unit right so um i think he basically just put up the same numbers as his album in 2023 but when i go stay i'm working walling i cover this man extensively all the time pause you guys see that's the problem but as far as his album i just wanted

to cover the sales let y'all know that he's still putting bta on every single musician in the industry if you don't know what btia is just know this is a pg podcast so i'm gonna let you look that up on your own time but that being said click my link here in my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about morgan wallen's latest album i'm the problem and what do you think about morgan wallin completely obliterating the music industry when it comes to engagement to the point where not only is this the number one album but it's outselling all of the top 10 other albums combined in its debut week Thank you.
