Morgan Wallen & Tate McRae’s ‘What I Want’ Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

Morgan Wallen’s “What I Want,” featuring Tate McRae, blasts in at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The collaboration between the country and pop stars – from Wallen’s new album, I’m the Problem, which soars in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 2025’s biggest week by equivalent album units – is Wallen’s fourth Hot 100 leader and McRae’s first. She surpasses her prior No. 3 best set by “Greedy” in January 2024. In March, McRae notched her first Billboard 200 No. 1 with So Close to What; she’s the first artist this year to lead both lists for the first time.

Wallen previously topped the Hot 100 with “Love Somebody,” also on I’m the Problem, for a week upon its debut in November; as featured on Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” which bowed at No. 1 in May 2024 and led for six weeks; and with “Last Night,” for 16 weeks beginning in March 2023, before wrapping as the chart’s top hit that year.

Wallen boasts six songs in all in the latest Hot 100’s top 10, with “I Got Better” also debuting, at No. 7, and “Superman” flying 16-8 in its second week on the chart. He has now charted nine top 10s from I’m the Problem; only Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department and Midnights (10 top 10s each) have yielded more, with Drake’s Certified Lover Boy also having generated nine.

Meanwhile, Wallen claims the top three spots on the Hot 100, with “What I Want” followed by “Just in Case” at No. 2 and “I’m the Problem” at No. 3 – as he becomes the first artist that primarily records country music to have monopolized the top three in a single week over the chart’s 66-year history.
