Morgan Wallen’s fans carried him to a momentous win in his battle with cancel culture. The singer won several major awards, including Top Country Artist, despite being banned from personally attending the awards ceremony.
Wallen apologized for his drunken use of a racial slur directed at a friend, but that wasn’t enough. His songs were removed from radio stations, record labels, streaming platforms, and even his own talent agency.

How do his fans listen to his music? I guess they are limited to his previous CDs?
I think you can still buy his music.
His music is still available in streaming but it got pulled from radio and online playlists.
Love to see this. The ridiculous cancelling of people has to be countered every chance we get.
The Weekend won 11 awards, never heard of them.
>>drunken
Ironically enough country is full of songs about drinking, partying etc.
Hank Jr once was apparently drunk at a concert, kept forgetting words, stormed off stage. Tour sponsor was Budweiser.
They keep on askin’ me Hank why do you drink...why must you live out the songs
that you wrote.
It’s “The Weeknd” and it’s one (pseudo-black) guy. He’s very popular now. And he did the Super Bowl Halftime show. Must’ve been hard with no screaming fans.
I haven’t heard of Morgan Wallen. What did he do that’s most popular?
If it’s the Weeknd (how he spells it)
he had a catchy hit and played the SuperBowl.Had heard song, knew not who
he was.
Did everyone read the garbage I. The short article? Dick Clark Prod. Is happy to hear he is on a journey to be more anti-racist.
I hope he has not given in. Screw those bastards. Ruining people over one God damn word.
The Weekend won 11 awards, never heard of them.
He actually goes by The Weeknd... 🙄
Pathetic. People living in fear of something they accidentally said either recently or even 20 years ago. It just takes one a-hole to bring it it up. Or make it up.
Sounds to me like you can no longer get his music.
It’s also full of lots of love rather than just sex. Which is what “rock” and “rap” are all about.
You won’t find many popular non-country songs about family or church or best friends or just having fun.
Proving my point
How do his fans listen to his music?

How indeed. I listened to one of his hits. Typical New Nashville Country.
Just awful.
However... I’m glad to see him winning against the Cancel Culture.
It’s on iTunes and Amazon.
Country fans are not big on censorship. Nice voice.
I hear rappers saying it all the time. What’s up with that?
True—just pointing out his racial slur
was done in a drunken state. Yes some
positive values in songs with country
but yes many booze and party songs
Day Drinking
Alcohol
I Love This Bar
I Like Beer
Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off
Red Solo Cup
Family Tradition
Pop a Top
It’s absurd. Worse thing here is some idiot neighbor taped him at his own house coming home from the bars. He called his buddy a bad name on his own property. The neighbor needs to get his/her ass kicked. Loser.
