The CMA Awards nominations were announced Monday morning, and Morgan Wallen leads the pack in nominations, receiving a total of seven.
Wallen is up for many awards, including single of the year, song of the year, music video of the year and twice in the musical event of the year category.
The "Wasted on You" singer has also been nominated for the award show's top honors of the night, including entertainer of the year and male vocalist of the year. He has been nominated in both categories in the past and faces stiff competition this year.
WHY IS MORGAN WALLEN SO FAMOUS? A LOOK AT HOW THE COUNTRY STAR GOT HIS START ON 'THE VOICE'
Many of Wallen's nominations come from his collaboration with Post Malone on the song "I Had Some Help." The song also earned Malone four CMA Award nominations.
While Post Malone's cross-over into country music earned him his first CMA Award nomination, the same cannot be said for Beyoncé, whose first official country album, "Cowboy Carter," was shut out from the awards ceremony.
