Morgan Wallen Reclaims No. 1 Position on the Billboard Artist 100
From rank three, Wallen rose to No. 1 on the Billboard Artist 100, peaking in the musical charts for weeks. Last Friday, the singer released his third studio album, One Thing At A Time. Such music collection has greatly contributed to Wallen’s Artist 100 ascent.
Amazingly, six of his songs in the album sealed spots in the Billboard Hot 100. “Last Night” placed highest among all tracks, peaking at No. 5 so far. On the other hand, “Thought You Should Know” placed No. 13 while “You Proof” sealed spot No. 21. “One Thing at a Time,” “I Wrote the Book,” and “Everything I Love” are also visible in the chart, placing No. 52, No. 63, and No. 93 respectively.
Apart from his latest music collection, Wallen’s previous LP Dangerous: The Double Album also played a big part on his redemption to No. 1. This set has impressively spent 109 weeks in the Billboard 200’s top 10, making Wallen a constant name in the ranking.
