Racial slurs will not be tolerated.

And Country star Morgan Wallen is learning the hard way.

As reported, the chart-topper – who had been on an unprecedented career ascend of late – found himself at the center of a storm after a video showing him using the N-Word surfaced.

In the shocking clip, a seemingly intoxicated Wallen makes racial epithets at his drunken friend after returning from a night on the town in Nashville.

This included referring to said friend as a ‘p*ssy a** m*therf*cker’ and ‘p*ssy a** n*****.’

Despite issuing an apology, radio stations and streaming services moved quickly in removing his music from their platforms.

And now his record label is following suit.
