Morgan Wallen is currently on his “The Dangerous Tour,” with his next stop scheduled to be Columbia, South Carolina, on February 24.
The county star’s tour also appears to serve as a comeback tour after he has fallen under attack after a video surfaced of him using a racial slur last year.
Wallen has been under attack since last February, after a video was published showing him using the N-word after a night out with his friends.
The singer publicly apologized for using the racial slur, stating, “I’m embarrassed and sorry,” adding, “I used an unacceptable and inappropriate racial slur that I wish I could take back. There are no excuses to use this type of language, ever. I want to sincerely apologize for using the word. I promise to do better.”
Wallen then faced an onslaught of cancelation attempts, as he was dropped by radio networks and major streaming platforms, as well as his talent agency, WME. The singer was also banned from last November’s American Music Awards (AMAs) in Los Angeles — despite having been nominated for two awards.
Nonetheless, Wallen had the best-selling album of 2021, outperforming artists like Adele, Olivia Rodrigo, and Drake.
Last month, the chart-topper completed his $500,000 donation pledge to black-led groups, which he made in the wake of the racial slur scandal.
