Morgan Wallen will miss the upcoming Country Music Association (CMA) Awards on November 10 despite being one of the top performing artists of 2021.
The CMA barred Wallen from the event over the release of a video earlier this year, which showed Wallen calling a friend a racial slur after a late night of heavy drinking in Nashville. The CMA has also banned Wallen from winning any individual awards, though it allowed him to compete for awards honoring his work to avoid punishing any of Wallen’s collaborators.

I bet rappers are laughing their asses off at this news.
Jazzi Junk, Nominated For Album Of The Year, Banned From Attending Hip-Hop Music Awards Over Never Using N-Word In Any Video Or Song
What a joke. This guys a good artist. His neighbor recorded him calling his own white friends the n word in the drive way of his own home as dudes often due. He is guilty of appropriating the culture of blacks not racism…lol. I bet if the black culture stopped using n****er so frequently it would disappear from the English lexicon.
You’re wrong but it okay
Nothing wrong with calling your friend any name in the book so long as he’s cool with it.
How long will he have to self flagellate, pay penance, be ostracized, and cancelled before he’s learned his lesson?
#6 it is CRAP music : )
Geez. His punishment has been going on for months
That’s OK. I have all of Moran Wallen’s tracks downloaded off of iTunes Music. Hopefully he’s getting some royalties over that.
I grew up listening to WSM 630 on the radio live from the Ryman every Friday and Saturday night. Sometimes the WWVA Wheeling Jamboree. Kitty Wells, Ferlin Husky, Porter Wagner, "Pretty Miss" Norma Jean, Loretta, George Jones, etc. etc. — the whole pantheon. No TV, no cable. Martha White Flour, Goody's Headache Powder. LOL!
Times change, tastes change. But today's country artists just aren't my cup of tea. But a lot of folks like it. So I hope they enjoy the awards show! May the best "they" win.
Exactly. Dude can say whatever he wants at his own home. Being banned and all this crap is absurd.
You’re assertion that current country- in particular this mans music is “rap” is patently false. It may not be 50- 60-70s country but to say it’s rap is simply fake news. True story. People can like what they like… but making fake narratives to support ones personal opinion is very….. leftist
