Morgan Wallen's Career-Changing Song

0:00On April 20th, Morgan Wallin just opened up about how writing the song Chasing You changed everything for his career. Back in 2016 and 2017, while crashing on a buddy's couch in Nashville, he teamed up with top songwriters Craig Weismann and Jamie, more to craft it. The track dropped in 2019, hit number 1 on Country Radio in 2020, his third chart topper then, and now, he's up to 20 number, one's total. That song gave Wallin the confidence he needed to push as a songwriter when he was still grinding to make a name. He called it his first perfect tune, nothing to tweak, just pure fire. In a chat on his friend ER&ST's podcast, just being ER&ST, he broke down how it fueled him to keep honing his craft. Wallin raved about Weismann's unique style, how the guy would step out for a cigar, come back and nail it. ER&ST backed him up, saying Weismann never quits on an idea, polishing rough drafts into gold.

1:01Fans still love Chasing You as a heartbroken gem and setless staple from his debut album, If I Know Me. Weismann co-wrote several hits on that album, like Talking Tennessee and Happy Hour, and he's still a go-to for Wallin's label. But Wallin's latest projects, I'm the problem, and one thing at a time, leaned on tighter writing crews without him. With their history of hits, it's easy to hold Wallin and Weismann link up again soon for another banger that keeps the momentum rolling.
