Or we can just f**king mass report them rather than constantly derail the thread over the same man who REALLY needs to just be forgotten. Iβm sick of coming into this thread and seeing βMorgan Wallen this, Morgan Wallen that.β There are more and much better artists than Morgan Wallen to talk about!!! Donβt misconstrue this for any sort of ignorance or defense of anything. TBF I have reported whenever I see anyone who is ignorant and racist and outside of warnings from staff nothing usually happens, so I am fine with Morgan Wallen confrontation to try and teach people what they are thinking is wrong, and it has been a bit since the last Morgan Wallen discussion.

Well, that needs to change. I know thereβs a warning system, but itβs always like the same exact people every time so youβd think theyβve used up every last warning.

However, the reason I respond to these type of posts is NOT to try to change the person who wrote it (someone like MnVikings or your grandfather) but so others know it's not okay. It's not to change OP's mind. It's to show everyone reading the thread what is right and what is wrong. Flatout racists like MnVkings will never change - but maybe people on the fence will see what is wrong with that and think twice. :)

No, it is to at least consider his words since he is one of the smarter people here on Pulse and just because you don't automatically respond to racists by posting doesn't mean you enable racism as you can just report the problematic posts. It's not that hard to realize bboat11 is respected either as one look at his profile shows how often his posts are liked (not to mention how liked the post in question is)

Tbh not every news is meant to be discussed. I think they can be posted here for recording and easy retrieval purposes. What bboat meant that time is the too frequent and minor reporting of Morgan Wallen news at that time, not the reporting themselves.

Wasnβt gonna be hypocritical and do what I was just complaining about, but Iβm not about to have my name dragged through mud. Go back and read through the past 50+ (at LEAST) pages of this thread and youβll see that thatβs almost all I have done in this thread during the past year and however many months. How dare you? I have used my energy to fight racism on Pulse, and I also need my energy to have a life outside of PulseβI know I post a lot on here, but Iβm now back in college and have bigger things on my plate that are more important than this internet music forum. Iβm not a fan of what this implies or of my character being attacked. You donβt f**king know me. Just because Iβm tired of the same conversations leading to nowhere does NOT equal me excusing racism. Now Iβm trying to enjoy my night and watch The Voice (Iβm aware Iβm privileged to have access to the show btw), and Iβve just done what I didnβt want to happen and contributed to this thread being derailed so Iβm out. Goodnight.

I know you quoted someone's post asking for something, but is that person even an administrator?Tbh I wish you'd use this energy to fight racism, but you do you. NOT me getting put on blast because I made a post once that then got quoted in a context that had nothing to do with me πππππππππππππππ Anyway, what recordyear said is exactly right. At the time of my post, I was SO TIRED of people coming in here and bickering about Morgan Wallen over things that were literally not even slightly newsworthy. But it has been awhile since those discussions were brought up all the time, and I don't really have a problem with jenglisbe 's initial post, because tbh Morgan Wallen not donating what he said he would to the black community is actually newsworthy... Now, of COURSE it led to drama among the " A couple of us will never understand why we need to hold white celebrities accountable for saying the N-word, and for some reason feel the need to be super loud about it" members of my post Because those hit dogs are going to holler EVERY TIME, predictable as the tides, and that is exactly why I made that post a few months ago to begin with. Those of us who have the self-restraint and critical thinking skills to resist mindless arguments need to do so in these instances, or else the entire thread will never stop being derailed. But as matty005 said, of course it is important to put racist comments on blast as well, and as taylor said there is just as big of a need to report them. It's a delicate balance, but I feel like a single mention of Morgan Wallen's name shouldn't be enough to completely upset things. I mean, Jesus Chris, he has never even pretended to be a good person, so his apologists literally have zero reason to act all offended and double down in defense of him when there is a single instance of someone pointing out his factual and obvious character flaws. Can the one-track minds not be chill for a moment?! Maybe take a breath and ignore the things that ruffle your feathers, like I'm going to do about jenglisbe acting like he's never even heard of me despite posting on here together for like 8 years now? Btw thanks raylatch98 for the nice comments I appreciate the self-esteem boost!

Do we have any thoughts on the songs she's referencing here? I've seen some people guess that it's Dierks with Gone and Beers on Me, which would be interesting. http://instagram.com/p/CUDGum4A1Fi

"Beers On Me" was released two months ago so I'm not sure if that would count as "recently released". I haven't listened to "Beers On Me" that much so I don't know if melodically it's that similar to "Gone" but that would be super interesting to see what happens with it being two Dierks songs.

A song released two months ago would mostly still be in lower regions of the chart and not listened by many on radio, so the freshness still holds.

A song released two months ago would mostly still be in lower regions of the chart and not listened by many on radio, so the freshness still holds. To the average listener, yes. But I'm not sure if two months ago would be recent to a Nashville songwriter. Maybe Nicolle has been weighing her options on this for a few weeks now, but especially after writing Dierks' last single, I'd find it hard to believe she would just recently be hearing "Beers On Me". But, after re-listening to the chorus of "Beers On Me" there certainly are some strong similarities to "Gone". The beginning of the chorus especially are melodically identical. I could certainly see that being the songs in reference. Even more interestingly is Dierks is a writer on "Beers" but not on "Gone" and obviously could have been strongly influenced by his own single when writing BOM. Sounds like Nicolle is stanging up for herself so we will likely hear about it soon enough.

I just wanted to add that these are great nominations and I'm very happy to see lots of great artists getting the recognition they deserve. CMA's should take notes!
