Morgan Wallen will not submit his 37-track album I'm the Problem for Grammy consideration after failing to win in previous years. Wallen's team will refrain from entering him in any categories while permitting collaborators like Post Malone and Tate McRae to submit their duets. Wallen earned nominations for work on Post Malone's F-1 Trillion and for the No. 1 single I Had Some Help, but has never won. The move mirrors The Weeknd's 2021 Grammy boycott and may reflect differing tastes between Wallen and the Academy, particularly after Beyoncé's Best Country Album win. Wallen also drew attention for an awkward SNL exit earlier this year.
Morgan Wallen, who is doing to country music what Drake did to young girls hip-hop, is declining to submit his 37-track I'm the Problem for Grammy consideration after failing to win in previous years - a strategy commonly known as "You're not breaking up with me, I'm breaking up with you." As reports, Wallen's team will not enter the artist in any categories, though they will not stop collaborators such as Post Malone or Tate McRae from submitting their duets.
Wallen was previously nominated for his work on Post Malone's F-1 Trillion, with multiple nods for No. 1 single "I Had Some Help." He has never won, putting him in rare company with The Monkees as the only artists to top the Billboard 200 for at least 30 weeks without earning Grammy gold. With this decision, Wallen is following in the footsteps of The Weeknd, who announced a Grammy boycott in 2021 following a perceived snub of After Hours.
