New Country Anthem

Morgan Wallen and Post Malone teamed up again in April 2025, releasing their single I Ain’t Comin’ Back. The track followed their 2024 smash hit I Had Some Help and continued blending country grit with pop polish.

The song officially dropped on April 18 and became part of Wallen’s long-awaited album I’m the Problem, which arrived on May 16. Fans had waited months for it, and the payoff was worth it.

The Return of a Chart-Topping Duo

In 2024, I Had Some Help dominated the Billboard Hot 100 for six straight weeks. It also topped the Country Airplay chart and was crowned Song of the Summer.

That track broke genre barriers and set the bar high for Wallen and Malone. I Ain’t Comin’ Back followed suit, aiming to ride the same wave of success—and it didn’t disappoint.
