Members Faulkner Posted March 13, 2023 Members Share Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) Morgan Wallen has sprung back from last year’s blacklisting and has scored his first No. 1 amid an album bomb of the Hot 100: Edited March 13, 2023 by Faulkner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 13, 2023 Members Share Posted March 13, 2023 He immediately got a huge surge in popularity after that blacklisting. A lot of people will pay big money to support a racist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted March 13, 2023 Members Share Posted March 13, 2023 I’ll admit, as a black man, that I don’t think he’s racist in the Scott Adams sense. I think he’s just dumb and one of those white dudes who thinks he has access to language he absolutely shouldn’t use. I *do* agree that the surge in popularity was in part due to racism. It’s a shame because I think he’s actually talented. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 13, 2023 Members Share Posted March 13, 2023 Other than what he said, and some poor appearances on SNL, I have little knowledge of him. He may not be a racist. I just think it's telling that as soon as he started dropping slurs, he went from a country singer who was somewhat liked but not a huge name, to a superstar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted March 13, 2023 Members Share Posted March 13, 2023 He’s absolutely reckless in a way that you can’t be in this day and age (like the partying and getting COVID, which resulted in his first SNL appearance getting cancelled). He was definitely poised as a future star in country music, which is why SNL pushed him so hard. He got banned by radio and from awards show appearances, and I think there was a backlash to the backlash, a lot of it driven by reactionary racists and maybe a bit of it from people who thought the punishment didn’t fit the crime, especially after he apologized and some of his black peers like Kane Brown and Jimmie Allen defended him. (Whether Kane and Jimmie did that to avoid being targeted by racists is one thing, but I do believe they were genuine. Kane, in particular, has not been one to shy away from calling out the racism among country fans.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
