He started working with Atom Smash's Sergio Sanchez while in California for his appearance on The Voice. Sanchez brought Wallen to Panacea Records' Bill Ray and Paul Trust.
Personal life
As of 2022, Morgan is not married. Previously, he dated KT Smith, and they even have a child that was born back in 2020. In a video that was made public in February 2021, Morgan is heard using the n-word. His record company temporarily suspended him as a result of the event, and some important American radio stations stopped playing his songs. Despite the criticism, Wallen's songs saw a spike in popularity after the event.
