Morgan Wallen's Album Returns to No. 1 Amid Controversy

Despite backlash and low sales, 'One Thing at a Time' tops Billboard 200 for the 17th nonconsecutive week.

Morgan Wallen's album 'One Thing at a Time' returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart for the 17th nonconsecutive week, despite backlash over the artist's past use of a racial slur.
The album, which debuted in March 2023, has not dipped below the sixth position on the chart since its release.
The album's return to No. 1 coincides with Wallen teasing a new song 'I Guess' on social media.
Despite the album's chart success, it is the worst-performing No. 1 album in the U.S. in over a year, with only 61,000 equivalent album units sold in the second week of January 2024.
Wallen's continued success has sparked outrage on social media, with many users referencing his past controversy.
