Such a snowflake wuss. Mind your business, male Karen. I don’t like Wallen’s music, but dude has gone through enough BS without this dude weighing in like the damn Gestapo.
quote:

Eclectic Nashville singer/songwriter ERNEST played the Grand Ole Opry Saturday night for the first time. He was later joined on stage by surprise guest Morgan Wallen. ERNEST and Wallen performed their new duet “Flower Shops” The two also enjoyed success in 2021 with Wallen's “More Than My Hometown," which ERNEST co-wrote. Many people, including fellow musician Jason Isbell, took to social media this weekend to express their disdain that Wallen was allowed to perform at the historic venue after he dropped a racial slur last year. Isbell reportedly donated money from Morgan Wallen album sales to NAACP, as he wrote the song, "Cover Me Up."



Isbell tweets:

Last night @opry you had a choice- either upset one guy and his “team,” or break the hearts of a legion of aspiring Black country artists. You chose wrong and I’m real sad for a lot of my friends today. Not surprised though. Just sad.

Jason Isbell is the anthesis of everything that he thinks he stands for. In his mind he's the heir to Dylan, but in reality he's just a self absorbed douchebag with a guitar.

Jason Isbell would have had his arse kicked by Jones, Cash, Jennings or Owens. This liberal moon bat would be too afraid to show his face in Nashville.

Really? Are there that many out there waiting to break through?

Jason , why don’t you bring them out to open for you in your tours and give them exposure as well.

Isbell is the kind of music the hipsters haunting the breweries and frilly bourbon bars in southern metros listen to while boring their boyfriends with their world cup soccer knowledge.

The guy has a few good songs, but he still sounds like 90% of his music comes off the same, tired template. He's overrated, most of all by himself it would seem.

He should just move on and quit pretending to be country.

Jason Isbell is uninspiring, bland, and lame. Throw his soy boy bullshite in too of it and I’m not sure why people talk about him or listen to his one music. He’s one of those where it was hip to like him, not because he was worth a shite.

If I have to like the person to listen to the music, I really would not be able to listen to music.

it's all about the money for the grand ole opry. no one should be defending morgan wallen on this board as his music absolutely sucks arse and he is a dumb redneck that got caught uttering a word that no white person should be saying (or black for that matter)

Ya know it's possible to like some of his songs while not giving a shite about his political views.

Isbell should tell Lil Durk how racist Wallen is since they seem to get along pretty damn well, and Durk has been doing a lot of taking up for Wallen. Nothing white liberals like more than to tell minorities when to be offended.

God his music is so good and he is such a good songwriter.

God why is he the way he is? Makes it so so hard to listen......I try to ignore.

But I still listen to Michael Jackson songs when they come up in my Spotify so........

I like Isbell. He is incredible live. He's not Dylan with songwriting but he's much better than this thread makes it seem.

This was a dumb take on his part. But if I limited who I listen to based on their political views, I'd probably be cutting out a ton of good music. I'm not really listening to any of his new stuff or buying albums, but this wont stop me from letting his songs play on my playlists.

If only Morgan Wallen or whatever his name is would claim he was drunk as a skunk and coked to high heaven, maybe Isbell could forgive him.

Am I the only one who finds his music really depressing?
