Morgan Wallen's new bar won't feature one of those neon signs that are ubiquitous among downtown Nashville honky-tonks. Nashville's Metro Council this week rejected the 'Whiskey Glasses' singer's request to install such a sign bearing his name outside of Morgan Wallen's This Bar & Tenessee Kitchen, which is set to open over Memorial Day weekend.
Other council members who spoke out Tuesday said their 'no' votes were driven by Wallen's history of comments that were 'hateful' and 'racist'; the singer was captured on a neighbor's Ring camera calling a friend by the n-word in his driveway after a night of drinking. One council member remarked that she was voting no in part because, in her words, Wallen had pledged to give money 'to the NAACP for funding' and then did not.
