Morgan Wallen has been dropped from his longtime booking agent, William Morris Endeavor (WME), following his use of the n-word according to MusicRow.
The agency removed Wallen from their roster following his use of a racial slur. The booking agency was responsible for Wallen’s tour dates, coordinating performances, negotiating contracts and any other public appearances.
According to Billboard, the country superstar had plans for a North American arena tour to kick off in late 2021 and run into early 2022, as well as a European tour.
“His team was plotting an arena headlining North American tour for late 2021-22,” Billboard shared. “Plans were also in place to take Wallen, who had already played in Australia, on his first tour of Europe.”
This announcement comes after Big Loud announced that his recording contract has been suspended indefinitely, as the aforementioned “behavior will not be tolerated.”
Additionally, Wallen’s music has been removed from hundreds of country radio stations across the country and all upcoming appearances on CMT have been removed. The singer was also removed from streaming playlists including Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, Pandora and more.
Wallen has also been deemed ineligible for the upcoming ACM Awards by The Academy Of Country Music and said that he will have no involvement whatsoever in the awards ceremony.
