Data Insight

Morgan Wallen's debut leans heavily on Nashville's professional songwriting circles, with Michael Hardy, Craig Wiseman, Ben Hayslip, and Chase McGill among the recurring credited writers. Wallen co-wrote several cuts, including the title track, 'Had Me by Halftime,' 'Gone Girl,' and 'Chasin' You,' but the two biggest hits show outside pens: 'Whiskey Glasses' came from Ben Burgess and Kevin Kadish, and 'Up Down' (featuring Florida Georgia Line) from Brad Clawson, Hardy, and CJ Solar. Joey Moi produced the record, shaping the radio-ready sound that took 'Whiskey Glasses' to No. 1 on Hot Country Songs.

If I Know Me is Morgan Wallen's debut studio album, released April 27, 2018. The album introduced Wallen as a country storyteller with strong mainstream pop instincts, generating the top-five hit 'Up Down' featuring Florida Georgia Line. Produced primarily in Nashville, the album established the template Wallen would build on: heartland imagery, self-aware narratives, and ear-friendly production that bridged traditional and modern country.
