Morgan Wallen says things got “pretty dark” after video surfaced in 2021 of him using a racial slur.
But Wallen says he’s learned important lessons during the past year.
, Wallen alluded to the growth he has experienced over the past year. He told Warren, “That speech I gave there was from my heart. It was true. I think I wrote it that morning and just kind of let whatever I felt come out, you know, um, pretty fresh, but yeah, it’s definitely true. Everyone, a lot of people around me are like, ‘Man, you know, you’re a lot different than you were even a year ago,’ you know.
“Those are things that you don’t forget, you know? It’s easy to be a friend when it’s the cool thing to do. So I definitely have a select number of people that I, that I really, really appreciate.”
