Morgan Wallen’s ‘I’m the Problem’ Rules Billboard 200 for Fourth Straight Week, As Lil Wayne, ENHYPEN, and More Shake Up the Top 10
Morgan Wallen continues to dominate the Billboard 200 as his latest album, I’m the Problem, holds tight at No. 1 for a fourth consecutive week. According to Luminate, the album moved 209,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending June 12, marking the biggest fourth-week performance for any album since Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department pulled 260,000 units in its fourth frame.
With this run, Wallen becomes the first artist since Swift to debut at No. 1 and hold the top position for four straight weeks. Problem debuted on the chart dated May 31 and hasn’t budged since, thanks largely to massive streaming numbers.

- 197,000 came from streaming (SEA), representing 257.9 million on-demand streams,

- 1,500 were track-equivalent units (TEA).
The album also continues to reign on the Top Streaming Albums chart for a fourth week, although its streaming numbers dipped slightly by 14%.

ENHYPEN’s K-pop Surge Lands at No. 3
Rising K-pop group ENHYPEN claims its fifth top 10 with DESIRE: UNLEASH, debuting at No. 3 with 100,000 equivalent album units.

- A negligible amount from TEA.
Rae’s album includes her prior Hot 100 entries “Diet Pepsi,” “Headphones On,” and “Fame Is a Gun.” With previous viral moments and a high-profile remix with Charli XCX, Rae is positioning herself as more than just a TikTok alum.
