Morgan Wallen is indisputably the biggest country artist of this generation. Amassing huge streaming activity despite not having any shows, tours, or social media buzz, his album, "One Thing At A Time," continues to make strides in 2024.

Wallen even tied with Adele in a new chart record, dethroning Taylor Swift's "1989 (Taylor's Version)" from the top spot.

As of this writing, "One Thing At A Time" logs the most weeks at No. 1 among all the albums released during this period ever since Adele's "21" spent 24 non-consecutive weeks at the top of the charts in 2011-2012.

In June 2023, "One Thing At A Time" spent its first 12 weeks and its last No. 1 spot was around October 2023. So far, the album has spent 45 weeks on the chart, and it has never descended on the No. 6 spot - making it both Billboard's and Luminate's No. 1 year-end album of 2023.

With 61,000 album-equivalent units, "One Thing At A Time" is by far the weakest units logged by a No. 1 Billboard 200 album since Pusha T's "It's Almost Dry" in May 2022 with 55,000 units.

Streaming powered the album with 58,000 units or 79.81 million streams, while 2,000 album sales are logged and 1,000 track units.
