On the heels of concluding his 2025 I’m The Problem Tour on September 13 in Edmonton, Alberta, Morgan Wallen has notched another top five-and-climbing single at Country radio with “I Got Better,” the second-of-37 tracks on his blockbuster fourth studio album, I’m The Problem. Today, the 19-time Billboard Music Award winner released the official music video for the single he dubbed his “most personal” upon its May 16 release. Watch Below.
Co-written by Wallen alongside Michael Hardy, Chase McGill, Blake Pendergrass, Ernest Keith Smith and Ryan Vojtesak, “I Got Better” comes to life on screen under the direction of Justin Clough. The cinematic video uses a car accident as a metaphor for the wreckage of a relationship. The storyline follows Wallen as he walks away from the crash, his wounds gradually beginning to heal as he does so.
Wallen first teased the video’s creative clad in bloodied attire via a social media post on September 3 during a week off on tour, simply captioning, “Interesting bye week lol”.
I’m The Problem spent 12 non-consecutive weeks atop the Billboard 200 albums chart and 13 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart. It also became Wallen’s first album to debut at No. 1 on the UK Official Charts – making him one of only five artists to debut at summit with a country album. The project has already yielded four No. 1’s at Country radio, including the title track, which remained at No. 1 for eight weeks.
The project debuted at No. 1 in seven countries upon release. In Australia, I’m The Problem became the longest-running No. 1 album by a country artist in 10 years, with three consecutive weeks atop the ARIA albums chart, while “What I Want (feat. Tate McRae)” spent five weeks at No. 1 on Australia’s Country Airplay chart.
About Morgan Wallen:
Morgan Wallen sets the pace in, and beyond, country music – with Billboard calling him “one of the biggest stars in the music world right now” and The New Yorker adding “[he’s] popular on a scale that seems to circumvent genre entirely.” With 19 No. 1 singles at Country radio, 19 Billboard Music Awards to-date, 198 weeks spent atop Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart (the most in country music history), the highest selling country tour under his belt and more, Wallen has propelled country music to a global level in less than five years.
Wallen’s fourth studio album, I’m The Problem, available now via Big Loud / Mercury, debuted at No. 1 globally across seven countries; while his preceding albums – Dangerous: The Double Album and One Thing At A Time – have remained in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart for more than 100 weeks each, making him the first artist ever to achieve that feat. I’m The Problem – which Hits Daily Double observes is “a 37-song cycle of self-reckoning” – has already yielded four No. 1’s at Country radio, including the title track, which remained at No. 1 for eight weeks. Wallen also broke his own record for the most simultaneous entries in Billboard Hot 100 History, with 37 songs charting on release week.
Wallen’s 20-stadium-show 2025 I’m the Problem Tour recently concluded in Edmonton, Alberta. In addition to his 20 stadium-plays, Wallen held his inaugural, personally-curated and multi-genre Sand In My Boots Music Festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama in May. He also performed an intimate album release show at The Roundhouse in London.
Wallen donates a portion of every ticket sold to his Morgan Wallen Foundation — which supports youth music and athletic programs and gives communities access to essentials in times of crisis. More at MorganWallen.com.
