Overview

  • Wallen’s team confirmed he will withhold the album and its singles from Grammy consideration, with Billboard reporting the move also covers not entering him in any category.
  • The decision includes songs he co-wrote across genres and general fields, according to Billboard’s reporting.
  • His camp is not blocking third-party submissions, leaving open the possibility of nominations via collaborators or other credited writers.
  • I’m the Problem remains commercially dominant, sitting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for an 11th nonconsecutive week as Wallen reaches 40 total weeks atop the chart.
  • Wallen has never earned a Grammy nomination for his solo work, with his only nods tied to a Post Malone collaboration, and similar Grammy pullbacks by The Weeknd and Drake provide precedent; key Grammy dates include first-round voting Oct. 3–15, nominations Nov. 7, and the Feb. 1, 2026 ceremony.
