Morgan Wallen and Post Malone Release New Single ‘I Ain’t Comin’ Back’
Country star Morgan Wallen and hip-hop sensation Post Malone are back with their latest collaboration, titled “I Ain’t Comin’ Back.” This track marks their second partnership, following the successful release of “I Had Some Help” last year. Fans can look forward to this new single appearing on Wallen’s upcoming album, I’m the Problem, which is scheduled to drop on May 16 through Big Loud/Mercury.
About the Song
“I Ain’t Comin’ Back” is a mid-tempo country song where Wallen and Malone take turns delivering verses that reflect on their lives as wanderers. Wallen’s catchy chorus includes the lines: “Now I’m walkin’ on this water, mixed with Johnnie Walker Black,” emphasizing themes of self-discovery and freedom while adding, “There’s a lot of reasons I ain’t Jesus/ But the main one is that I ain’t comin’ back.”
Promotional Activities
Wallen and Malone have been generating excitement for the new single through social media teasers. On Tuesday, the duo revealed the collaboration through an Instagram post that featured both artists alongside the song title and its release date. Additionally, Wallen disclosed a comprehensive track list for I’m the Problem, which includes collaborations with other artists like Tate McRae, Eric Church, and Ernest.
Success of Previous Work
The duo first gained significant attention with their last hit, “I Had Some Help,” which dominated country radio and crossed over to pop charts, securing the top position on the Hot 100 for six weeks. This collaboration earned Grammy nominations for Best Country Song and Best Country Duo/Group Performance, solidifying their influence in both genres.
Upcoming Tour and Performances
To promote his new album, Wallen is set to embark on the I’m the Problem tour across North America, kicking off in Houston, Texas, at NRG Stadium. Wallen’s tour will feature special guests including Corey Kent, Koe Wetzel, Brooks & Dunn, Miranda Lambert, Thomas Rhett, Gavin Adcock, Ella Langley, and Anne Wilson.
Wallen expressed his enthusiasm for returning to the stage, stating, “As I’ve been working on new music, it has inspired me to get back on the road and share these new songs with each of you on the I’m The Problem Tour. See y’all there.”
Potential Coachella Appearance
Post Malone is also set to headline this year’s Coachella festival, raising the possibility of a surprise live performance with Wallen during the festival’s second weekend, especially following the excitement surrounding their new collaboration.
