Morgan Wallen Spray Paints His Success On Music Row

Morgan Wallen's "You Proof" has become the first 10-week number one in Billboard's Country Airplay Chart history. Morgan himself took some spray paint to fix a banner on Nashville's Music Row yesterday (1/11) to mark the occasion. 

Wallen shared a clip of himself fixing a banner on Music Row congratulating him on his latest achievement. On his Insta stories, he wrote, "'You Proof' is the only song ever to spend ten weeks at the top of the Country Airplay chart. Thank you to my fans, an incredible radio team, and country radio for the support. Love ya'll." He added, "Decided to rearrange the banner instead of buying a new one on the next story. lol." 

In the following story, Morgan stands on a ladder with spray paint to fix the six weeks to ten by crossing out the six with red paint and adding a ten. He wrote over the clip, "Let's see how good my Graffiti skills are." As some label people laughed, he crosses out the six many times and then switches to yellow paint to do so. He writes" "That look good?" Then he takes some orange spray paint to go over the ten again and adds an orange T for Tennessee Vols on his shirt on the banner image. He steps back, and they all giggle with joy.      

It is a tradition that has been going on for decades in Nashville to hang banners with artists' and songwriters' success down 16th Avenue, where most of the record label and music business offices reside. 

Last month, Morgan announced his 2023 tour, called the "One Night At A Time World Tour." Ernest and Bailey Zimmerman will open for Wallen, with Hardy and Parker McCollum opening select shows. The tour will include several festivals as well as dates in stadiums, arenas, and amphitheaters. This month (January) marks two years since he released Dangerous: The Double Album. 

As Morgan Wallen celebrates his 30th birthday today (5/13), he just shared with his fans that he has re-scheduled 10 out of the 16 tour dates that he postponed early this week. Morgan posted the news on his Instagram to the delight of his bid fan base.

While he wasn't in attendance at the ACM Awards earlier this week (5/11), Wallen did win the Male Artist of the Year honor given out by ACM co-host Garth Brooks.

Earlier this year, in March, Morgan revealed he is single. He said in a recent interview, "I had a girlfriend for a while. Not recently. That was the last one I had. I don't have anybody right now. It's kind of hard. Just how busy I've been. I got a son; an album, a tour; I've got all these things I do."

He added, "It's really hard for me to make time for that. I want to, though. I think I'm coming up on my 'settle down phase.' We'll see. I'm not in a hurry."

As Walen celebrates his big day working on improving his voice during his doctor-mandated vocal rest, we pause to look at 13 of his best songs.
