Hear Tate McRae Join Morgan Wallen on Intimate Ballad ‘What I Want’

Morgan Wallen has dropped his new album, I’m the Problem, which includes the highly-discussed collaboration with Tate McRae. The crooning ballad sees the pair sharing vocals as they sing about a temporary relationship between two broken people.

Wallen announced the duet last month, causing McRae’s fans to criticize her decision to work with the country singer. “If McRae had a country-pop pivot in mind, there were plenty of options that wouldn’t place her next to one of country’s most radioactive stars,” Rolling Stone wrote at the time. “She’s stepped into the hazard zone, but it’s unlikely to completely derail her rising star — it might just bring her to an audience that doesn’t care much about morals as long as the music is good. It’ll have to run its course.”

I’m the Problem features 37 tracks, including collaborations with Post Malone, Eric Church, and Ernest. “We recorded around 50 songs for this album and ended up cutting 13,” Wallen explained in a statement. “I feel like we accomplished what I had in mind, and a huge shoutout to my close collaborators on this too. They came in ready and fired up every single day, and they inspire me as much as anything else.”

In support of his new album, Wallen will hit the road for his I’m the Problem tour across North America and will kick things off in Houston, Texas, at NRG Stadium with Corey Kent and Koe Wetzel on June 20. Other special guests planned for the stadium run include Brooks & Dunn, Miranda Lambert, Thomas Rhett, Gavin Adcock, Ella Langley, and Anne Wilson.

McRae’s latest LP, So Close to What, arrived earlier this year and went to No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart. She is currently out on her global Miss Possessive Tour, which continues through September.
