He released <em>I\u2019m The Problem<\/em> earlier this year. The album quickly shot to the number one spot. The album followed his <em>One Thing At a Time <\/em>album. All 36 songs from <em>One Thing At a Time<\/em> landed on the Billboard charts at the same time. Despite the record-breaking milestone, the popular singer has decided to shun the biggest awards in the music industry: The Grammys.<\/p>\n<h3>Morgan Wallen Shuns Music Industry After Past Controversies<\/h3>\n<p>Morgan Wallen first gained public attention in 2014 as a contestant on season six of <i>The Voice<\/i>. He didn\u2019t win, but landed a record deal. After releasing his debut album in 2015 with another label, he signed with Big Loud. He released his second album <em>The Way I Talk<\/em> in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>His star continued to rise until 2021, when he was caught on camera shouting a racial slur. His career was nearly ruined over the incident. Morgan Wallen\u2019s record label temporarily suspended his contract and radio stations refused to play his music.<\/p>\n<p>He was banned from several award ceremonies, including the ACMs and the American Music Awards. Morgan Wallen apologized and eventually regained his career. But he made headlines again in 2024 when he was <a href=\"https:\/\/countrymusicalley.com\/2024\/04\/08\/morgan-wallen-arrested-at-eric-churchs-bar-felony-charges\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">arrested at Eric Church\u2019s Nashville<\/a> bar. The \u201cLast Night\u201d singer threw a chair off the bar roof. He eventually took a plea deal for seven days of jail time and two years of probation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_51846\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-51846\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-51846 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/countrymusicalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Morgan-Wallen-4722.jpg\" alt=\"Morgan Wallen\" width=\"900\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countrymusicalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Morgan-Wallen-4722.jpg 900w, https:\/\/countrymusicalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Morgan-Wallen-4722-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/countrymusicalley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Morgan-Wallen-4722-768x393.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/460;\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-51846\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Morgan Wallen<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Things were on the rise again when he abruptly walked off stage after performing on<a href=\"https:\/\/countrymusicalley.com\/2025\/03\/29\/morgan-wallen-fans-roast-cringe-saturday-night-live-teaser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0<em>Saturday Night Live<\/em><\/a>.
