Morgan Wallen

Specifically referring to tour dates with Luke Bryan and scheduled festival dates, Wallen says he's bowing out.

The billboards are on display near Music Row in Nashville.

He's his favorite artist right now.

Allen wanted to know how he could help Wallen "become a better version of himself."

Wallen's album has bested Garth Brooks 1992 album 'The Chase.'

He took to social media to offer a lengthy statement that includes an apology and explanation.

"Forgiveness is more powerful than abandonment," Allen begins.

Morgan Wallen was country music's fastest-rising star, but come Wednesday (Feb. 3), you can't even find him on the radio.

The Academy of Country Music has ruled the singer ineligible for this year's awards show.

The announcement means that he's effectively dropped.
