<p>Morgan Wallen said a word that’s <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/naacp-morgan-wallen-apologies/">no longer allowed to be spoken</a> in society (<a href="https://nypost.com/2021/06/08/hunter-biden-repeatedly-called-his-white-lawyer-the-n-word-texts-show/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unless your name is Hunter Biden</a>, then all is forgiven).</p>
<p>For that, the country sensation suffered a <a href="https://www.npr.org/2021/02/03/963664999/country-star-morgan-wallen-suspended-by-label-dropped-by-radio-cmt-after-using-s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">humiliating blow to his music career</a>. Several, actually.</p>
<ul>
<li>His record label suspended him</li>
<li>iHeartMedia yanked his songs from the massive platform</li>
<li>Cumulus Media did the same, as did Pandora and SiriusXM</li>
<li>CMT canceled his music</li>
<li>The <a href="https://www.tennessean.com/story/entertainment/music/2021/10/01/morgan-wallen-not-invited-cma-awards-album-nomination/5949475001/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Country Music Awards disinvited him</a> from its annual showcase</li>
</ul>
<p>Wallen immediately apologized for using the “n-word” in a private conversation captured on video and shared for all to see and hear.</p>
<p>His apology tour didn’t stop there.</p>
<p>He donated <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/music/2021/09/22/morgan-wallen-kept-his-pledge-donate-money-black-serving-groups/5788855001/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$500,000 to various black causes.</a> He admitted himself into a rehab facility and shuttered his upcoming concert tour. And yet it wasn’t enough for <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/morgan-wallen-cancel-culture-cma-awards/">either Cancel Culture or the media outlets that fuel it.</a></p>
<p>Reporters suggested his punishment needed to continue, with no apparent end in sight. What good is Cancel Culture, they said, if the targets aren’t permanently canceled?</p>
<p>Wallen finally emerged from his self-imposed hiatus toward the end of 2021. And, we’re just learning, his record sales boomed during his tumultuous year. He crushed 2021 by having the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/country-morgan-wallen-best-selling-album-2021-racial-slur-scandal-reports" target="_blank" rel="noopener">number one selling album</a> of the year, “Dangerous: The Double Album.”</p>
<p>The release beat out stiff competition from Adele, Drake and Olivia Rodrigo.</p>
<p>That’s not all, though.</p>
<p>The far-Left Variety reports Wallen now sits <a href="https://variety.com/2021/music/news/morgan-wallen-currently-no-1-on-hip-hop-chart-says-hed-like-to-work-with-kendrick-lamar-1235144949/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">atop the Hip-Hop music charts</a> thanks to “Broadway Girls.”</p>
<p data-slot-rendered-dynamic="true">The track, teaming Wallen with rapper Lil Durk, needed roughly a week to climb Billboard’s R&amp;B/hip-hop charts. And Wallen’s hip-hop connections aren’t over.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" title="Lil Durk - Broadway Girls feat. Morgan Wallen - (Official Music Video)" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2CNl_CCtE-I?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>He just appeared with Druski, a black comic, on a Clubhouse talk show. The conversation avoided the “n-word” incident and focused on music, future hip-hop collaborations and small talk.</p>
<p>The black community should be the angriest about Wallen’s use of the “n-word,” to state the obvious. That his latest song soared up the R&amp;B/Hip-Hop charts, which routinely features artists of color and boasts a diverse fan base, speaks volumes for how Wallen was treated during the past year.</p>
<p>The superstar didn’t hurt anyone, mislead the public or hurl that awful word against a black person. The punishment did not remotely fit the crime, and many Americans from all races and creeds felt he had suffered enough.</p>
<p data-slot-rendered-dynamic="true">They showed it by continuing to buy his albums and salute his cross-over efforts. It’s similar to seeing disgraced comic Louis C.K. get a rapturous reception during his <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/louis-ck-sorry-review-trans-chappelle/">latest stand-up special</a>. Yes, what the comedian did was vile and disgusting. At what point, though, does he get to live his life again?</p>
<p data-slot-rendered-dynamic="true">Wallen’s end of year comeback gave Cancel Culture, and the reporters who adore it, a big black eye.</p>
