Since January, Wallen has been teasing and releasing tracks from his upcoming album, which is set to be released on May 16. Along with the two he performed last night, he also released “Superman”, “Smile”, and “I am a little crazy”.
Controversies and Legal Issues
It is believed that the name of the upcoming album relates to some of his public scandals in recent years. In April last year, it was reported that the singer was accused of three cases of reckless threat and one charge of hooliganism after he threw a chair from a bar rooftop in Tennessee.
In December, he was found guilty of two misdemeanors for reckless threat without weapons and was ordered to spend a week in a DUI educational center, along with a two-year controlled probation period.
In 2021, footage surfaced of him using racial slurs, resulting in him being dropped by several radio stations and his label, Big Loud. Despite this, sales for his album “Dangerous” surged, keeping Wallen at number one on the Billboard 200 albums for a record ten weeks. Wallen stated that he was “embarrassed and regretted” his actions, asking fans not to defend him.
Prior to this, the Country Tennessee star violated CDC recommendations for the COVID-19 pandemic in October 2020, leading to the cancellation of his planned debut on SNL. He eventually performed on the show two months later, joking about parties without social distancing during a sketch.
In other news, in October, the musician donated $500,000 to the American Red Cross as part of efforts to assist in recovery from Hurricane Helen.
