US EditionAshley Gorley On Honoring Jelly Roll & His Impact, Gives His Opinion on Morgan Wallen Not Submitting Album for the Grammys
Morgan Wallen continues to forgo Grammy consideration for his album "I'm the Problem," despite 11 weeks atop Billboard 200 and nearly 4 million equivalent sales, reflecting ongoing industry tensions.
- Morgan Wallen will not submit his album I’m the Problem or himself for consideration at the 2026 Grammy Awards, a decision first reported by Hits Daily Double and Billboard and confirmed to Rolling Stone and Pitchfork.
- In 2021 a leaked video showed Wallen using a racist slur, leading to an apology and suspension by his label, Big Loud Records.
- I’m the Problem has spent 11 weeks at No.1 on the Billboard 200, with Wallen’s team confirming no submissions for individual recording categories or the seven songs he co-wrote.
- Wallen’s decision leaves featured artists and songwriters free to submit their work, following a pattern of non-submissions by Drake, The Weeknd and Zach Bryan at the Recording Academy.
- Despite chart dominance, Wallen has never secured solo Grammy nominations, and the Recording Academy's first-round voting runs October 3 to 15 with nominations announced November 7 for the 2026 Grammy Awards.
