Morgan Wallen Fans React to “I’m the Problem” Preview
The official studio version of “I’m the Problem” sounds much like the rough demo that Morgan Wallen shared last year. However, the sound is a little fuller and Wallen’s voice seems to be in better shape. Fans flocked to the comment section of the YouTube clip to share their excitement.
“The ‘I Guess’ demo I had on loop for about a year!” one excited fan commented, immediately recognizing the track.
“Morgan never disappoints. Always dropping bangers…and chairs,” another commented, making light of Wallen’s recent legal issues.
One young fan is looking forward to figuratively wearing out “I’m the Problem” as soon as it drops. “Can’t wait, sounds like I’ll listen to it on the bus to and from school,” they wrote.
Some fans are calling “I’m the Problem” a return to form for Wallen. One said the new track reminds them of “Spin You Around” from his 2015 EP Stand Alone. Another commented, “The old Morgan is back!!”
Another fan is already trying to decipher the meaning behind the lyrics. “This makes me think he’s singing about Nashville,” they wrote.
Many other fans are hoping that I’m the Problem will be another double album. One commented, “This album should have 37 songs.”
Fans will get to hear the complete version of “I’m the Problem” when it drops across streaming platforms this Friday.
