The country star was effectively banned from radio after he was caught on camera using a racial slur, but slowly stations are spinning his songs again.
Four months after country star Morgan Wallen s airplay initially plummeted following a February incident reported by
TMZ in which he was caught on video using the N-word with friends, his radio presence is once again steadily growing.
At the beginning of May, Wallen s number of weekly spins across the nearly 150 radio stations that report to
Billboard s Country Airplay chart was still in the low 1,000s. But after lifting from 1,100 in the week of May 7-13 to 1,500 the week of May 14-20, they ve risen each subsequent week, and are now at 2,900 for the week of June 4-10 a total gain of 164% over the same period a month earlier.
