Шаблон:Infobox album Dangerous: The Double Album is the second studio album by American country music singer Morgan Wallen. The double album was released on January 8, 2021, via Big Loud Records and Republic Records on CD, vinyl, and digital download. The production on the album was handled by Joey Moi, Jacob Durrett, Charlie Handsome, Matt Dragstrem and Dave Cohen. It also features guest appearances by Chris Stapleton and Ben Burgess.

Dangerous was preceded by the release of two singles: "More Than My Hometown", and "7 Summers"; and six promotional singles: "Cover Me Up", "This Bar", "Heartless (Wallen Album Mix)", "Somebody's Problem", "Still Goin' Down", and "Livin' the Dream". The album also received generally positive reviews from music critics and was a commercial success. It debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 and US Top Country Albums charts, earning 265,000 album-equivalent units in its first week.

In March 2022, the album established the all-time record for longest duration in the number one spot (97 weeks) on BillboardШаблон:'s Country Albums chart.

Background

Wallen stated: Шаблон:Blockquote

Shortly before the release of the album, several CDs were erroneously put up for sale at certain Walmart locations in the United States. This prompted several consumers to leak clips of unreleased songs, to which Wallen responded by saying "If anyone's gonna leak my music, it should be me" and releasing "leaks" of unreleased songs himself. He also urged his fans to buy the physical release at Target instead, adding: "I don't shop at Walmart anyway. I also gave Target two extra songs, so if you're going to buy my album physically, go to Target, baby".

Walmart responded to the issue with this statement provided to the Rolling Stone: Шаблон:Blockquote

Critical reception

Шаблон:Music ratings The album received generally positive reviews. Owen Myers of Pitchfork complimented Wallen's vocals and songwriting alongside writing that "among the album's 30 tracks there are few skips". Jonathan Bernstein of Rolling Stone felt the opposite, calling the record "part album, part playlist, part content dump" and that "Wallen does not always seem up to the heavy task of pumping fresh life into well-worn topics". Writing for Stereogum, Chris DeVille wrote that though "Wallen's look is old-fashioned, his sound is thoroughly, sometimes maddeningly current" and called the record "a massive leap from his debut" while adding "if the tracklist feels excessive, it also doesn't have a lot of weak spots" and that "the guy seems capable of becoming Garth Brooks for a new generation". Jon Pareles of The New York Times wrote that Wallen "leaves ample room for musical variety" and called the record "modern Nashville studio product, aimed for radio playlists and, eventually, big concert spaces".

Chris Richards, writing for The Washington Post, opined that the album "feels about 19 songs too long" and that "time never seems to be moving fast enough [on it]". Dan DeLuca of The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote that the album "gets tiresome fast" and called it "overstuffed with radio-ready cliche", but did recognize Wallen's overall talent. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "the sheer variety proves Wallen can indeed convincingly sing just about any modern country style" and felt that the album weaved between "harder country and softer pop".

Commercial performance

Dangerous: The Double Album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 and US Top Country Albums charts, earning 265,000 album-equivalent units (including 74,000 copies as pure album sales) in its first week, according to MRC Data. This became Wallen's first US number one debut and his second on the latter. The album also accumulated a total of 240.18 million on-demand streams, becoming the largest streaming week ever for a country album at the time. This more than doubles the record set by Luke Combs' What You See Is What You Get. In its second week, the album remained at number one on the chart, earning an additional 159,000 units making it the first country album to spend two weeks at number one since Chris Stapleton's Traveller in 2015 and the first country set to spend its first two weeks at number one since Luke Bryan's 2015 album Kill the Lights. In its third week, the album remained at number one on the chart, earning 130,000 more units. In its fourth week, the album remained at number one on the chart, earning 149,000 units. It received a 14 percent increase from the previous week, despite the nationwide removal of Wallen's music throughout radio stations in the United States following his use of a racial slur outside of his Nashville home on February 2, 2021. It concurrently became the first country album to spend its first four weeks atop the Billboard 200 chart since Shania Twain's Up! did so in January 2003. In addition, it later extended its run with a fifth and sixth week at the top, marking the longest run atop the charts for a country album since Garth Brooks' The Chase in 1992. The album eventually spent a total of ten weeks at number one on the Billboard 200 and ended up becoming the best selling album for the first half of 2021. As of September 2021, the album has earned 2,539,000 album-equivalent units and has sold 267,000 copies in the United States.

The album has been certified 6× Platinum in the United States, 4× Platinum in Canada, Platinum in Australia, and Gold in New Zealand.
