By returning to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (dated Aug. 8) with I’m the Problem, Morgan Wallen ups his career tally of weeks at No. 1 on that chart to 43. Only one core country artist, Garth Brooks, has logged more weeks at No. 1 (52 weeks). Two other superstars whose careers transcended the country genre also have more weeks at No. 1: Elvis Presley (67 weeks) and Taylor Swift (98 weeks).

A few quick notes: While Presley’s feats on the Billboard Hot 100 are shortchanged by the fact that his breakthrough in 1956 pre-dated the launch of Billboard’s flagship songs chart by more than two years, the Billboard 200 captures Presley’s entire career. His debut album, Elvis Presley, entered the chart at No. 11 in the issue dated March 31, 1956 — which was the chart’s second week.
If you count the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (which logged 24 weeks at No. 1 in 1978) as a Bee Gees album, the trio had 31 weeks on top. Bee Gees had six tracks on the album — five of which were No. 1 hits on the Hot 100. But Billboard counts it as a multi-artist soundtrack album.
Here’s a look at all acts with 30 or more weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 since March 24, 1956, when the chart began publishing on a consistent weekly basis. Ties are shown in alphabetical order.
