Morgan Wallen is making history down under. His album I’m The Problem has secured its third consecutive week at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, marking the longest-running chart-topper by a country artist in Australia since Lee Kernaghan’s Spirit of the Anzacs in 2015. It’s a rare feat in a market typically dominated by pop and rock, placing Wallen in elite company alongside Shania Twain’s 1999 classic Come On Over.
Wallen also shows strength on the singles front — “What I Want” featuring Tate McRae lands at No. 14. McRae herself debuts at No. 5 with “Just Keep Watching,” a track from the Brad Pitt-led F1 movie soundtrack, co-penned by Ryan Tedder. It marks her 11th top 20 hit in Australia.
Taylor Swift rockets back into the top tier, with Reputation surging to No. 2 following news she reclaimed ownership of her masters. Miley Cyrus also enters at No. 4 with Something Beautiful — her eighth top 20 album in the country.
Cloud Control re-enters at No. 19 amid a surprise reunion, while Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” continues its reign atop the ARIA Singles Chart for an 11th consecutive week, tying several all-time chart legends.
