Morgan Wallen Notches Fourth Country Airplay No. 1 From ‘I’m the Problem’ With ‘Just in Case’

Morgan Wallen logs his 18th No. 1 — and the fourth from his album I’m the Problem — on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart as “Just in Case” ascends two spots to the top of the survey dated July 12.

The single surged 22% to 29.4 million audience impressions June 27-July 3, according to Luminate.

Wallen co-authored the song, and Joey Moi produced it.

The ballad becomes the fourth Country Airplay chart-topper among the 37 songs on Wallen’s blockbuster I’m the Problem, which has led Top Country Albums and the Billboard 200 in its first six weeks of release. The title track dominated for eight weeks beginning in April, “Love Somebody” ruled for three weeks in February, and “Lies Lies Lies” led for a week last November.

Notably, as we pass the halfway point this year, Wallen’s latest Country Airplay No. 1 marks his third of 2025 — no other act has more than one. In 2024, he became the first artist to roll up five leaders in a single year since the list launched in 1990: “Lies Lies Lies”; “Cowgirls,” featuring Ernest; Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” featuring Wallen; “Man Made a Bar,” featuring Eric Church, and Thomas Rhett’s “Mamaw’s House,” featuring Wallen.

Rhett’s Milestone 25th Top 10

Speaking of Thomas Rhett, he claims his 25th Country Airplay top 10 with his co-authored “After All the Bars Are Closed.” The single pushes 12-9 (19 million, up 15%). It follows “Beautiful as You,” which hit No. 2 in November. His first top 10, “It Goes Like This,” became his first of 20 No. 1s in October 2013.

Bryan’s Top 10 ‘Country Song’

Luke Bryan scores his 37th Country Airplay top 10 as “Country Song Came On” lifts 11-10 (18.1 million, up 8%). “Love You, Miss You, Mean It” awarded the American Idol judge his prior top 10 (No. 2 last October). His rookie entry “All My Friends Say” hit No. 5 in 2007, while “Rain Is a Good Thing” became his first of 26 No. 1s in 2010.

Bryan ties Reba McEntire for the 10th-most Country Airplay 10s (surpassing Garth Brooks’ 36). Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw and George Strait lead the pack with 61 each.
