I'm the Problem is the fourth studio album by American country music singer Morgan Wallen. It was released through Big Loud, Republic, and Mercury Records on May 16, 2025. The album features guest appearances from Tate McRae, Eric Church, Hardy, Ernest, and Post Malone. Production was handled by Joey Moi, Charlie Handsome, and Jacob Durrett. Unlike Wallen's previous album that was recorded in the Abbey Road Studios, I'm the Problem was recorded and written in his farm outside of Nashville, Tennessee.[2]

I'm the Problem consists of 37 tracks and has a running time that is nearly 117 minutes long. This became Wallen's longest running album and his album to feature the most tracks, surpassing One Thing at a Time. Additionally, I'm the Problem spawned nine single/promotional singles: "Lies Lies Lies", "Love Somebody", "Smile", the title track, "I'm a Little Crazy", "Just in Case", "I Ain't Comin' Back", "Superman", and "What I Want".[a][b] Six of the tracks listed above debuted or reached the top-ten of the US Billboard Hot 100 prior to the album's release, eclipsing the conjoint record held by Red and Hollywood's Bleeding by Taylor Swift and Post Malone respectively.[c][3][4] "Love Somebody" and "What I Want" each debuted atop the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming Wallen's third and fourth chart-toppers on the respective chart, alongside his second and third number-one debuts.[5][6]

Similarly to Wallen's previous album, I'm the Problem garnered mixed reviews from music critics.[7][8] Nonetheless, the album debuted atop the US Billboard 200 and has yet to depart from the top spot after three weeks, thus marking Wallen's third consecutive number-one album on the respective chart. The album has moved over 493,000 album-equivalent units in its opening week, with 133,000 pure sales, overtaking the Weeknd's Hurry Up Tomorrow as the largest debut week of the year.
