Morgan Wallen’s career is back on track after his 2021 racism scandal despite his recent legal troubles. In a shocking turn of events, the country music sensation has been declared by fans the Greatest of All Time (GOAT) after shattering Taylor Swift’s long-standing record.
Wallen’s meteoric rise to fame has left fans and critics alike in awe, with many proclaiming him the new king of music.
Morgan Wallen Breaks Taylor Swift’s Streak
Wallen’s latest album, One Thing at a Time, debuted with unprecedented numbers, breaking Swift’s record for the most songs on the Streaming Songs chart at once. The album’s 36 tracks claimed 30 spots on the chart, a feat no artist has ever achieved before. This incredible showing has solidified Wallen’s position as a dominant force in the music industry.
But Taylor Swift reclaimed her top spot with the release of The Tortured Poets Department in April. Every song on the surprise double album landed on the streaming chart. The album has 31 tracks, just enough to overtake Morgan Wallen’s previous record.
He went on to break another of Swift’s records for the most weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this decade. His streak of 20 weeks atop the chart surpassed Swift’s previous record of 19 weeks, cementing his status as a chart-topping powerhouse.

Fans React
Morgan Wallen fans took to Reddit to share the singer’s latest record-breaking milestone. Check out some of the comments praising him:
- He’s the hottest artist right now. And he’s got everything lined up for it to stay that way for a long time. Everything he puts out is better than the last – it’s amazing to watch his trajectory. Love it!!
- GOAT
- Good taylor hasn’t been good since she was country in my opinion I don’t get the hype at all. All her songs sound like a whin-y spoken word poem
Of course, some Redditors randomly stumped upon the thread and weren’t shy about sharing their disdain for the singer. One detractor wrote, “This just means that most people have terrible taste in music. “
Another added, “Actually looks like Post Malone broke the record, Morgan Wallen was just featured on the song. Unless I’m reading the wrong hot 100 chart.”
As Wallen continues to break records and push boundaries, it’s clear that he is here to stay.
