Welp, looks like somebody done messed up BIG TIME.
Morgan Wallen’s upcoming double album, Dangerous, is SUPPOSED to be released this coming Friday, on January 8th. Morgan is undoubtedly gearing up for a big release week, but somehow, a few people managed to find it at their local Walmart, roughly a whole week ahead of the scheduled release date.
News of the leak was shared on Twitter and TikTok, with fans apparently locating copies in Wisconsin, North Carolina, West Virginia and more.
Saw @MorganWallen new album at Walmart today. Think they screwed up the date but I don’t have a CD player anymore. Damn I was tempted to buy one with the album 😂🤦🏻♂️

It was on the rack at Walmart. When I was checking it out it said it was a restricted purchase and a worker had to come over, but he authorized it!

This copy was located at a Missouri Walmart.
Obviously the wires got crossed somewhere along the way, and it remains to be seen who’s at fault for the mistake, but at this point, the cat is already out of the bag.
Morgan recently shared a post to Instagram reflecting back on his tumultuous 2020, opting to focus on the positives as opposed to many of the publicized negatives.
“I could easily have a bad attitude towards the year, and I do in some ways.
I woke up in a reflective spirit today, as I’m sure a lot of y’all did. Instead of lingering on the many negative things that plagued us all, I decided to go the other direction. Most of the negative things for me were public knowledge anyways.”
And while 2020 may have had a few bumps in the road, Morgan’s career couldn’t be on a better trajectory. Although, it looks like we’ll be kicking off 2021 with another hiccup after this Walmart fiasco.
Stay tuned…
