Tate McRae fans hit back at feature on Morgan Wallen’s new album
"I woke up shaking in a cold sweat" The post Tate McRae fans hit back at feature on Morgan Wallen’s new album appeared first on NME.

Tate McRae is set to feature on Morgan Wallen’s new album, but some of her fans aren’t happy about it.
News of the collaboration came just after the country music star revealed that he had a joint track with Post Malone on the way called ‘I Ain’t Comin’ Back’ – which is set to feature on his huge, 37-track album ‘I’m The Problem’.
On Tuesday (April 15), McRae got fans talking about the new album too when she suggested that she would be featuring on the tracklist too. She did this by sharing a photo on Instagram, containing an orange jersey that had Wallen’s initials on it.
Since the post was shared, it looks like the news of the two potentially teaming up hasn’t gathered the best response from fans. This, in part, stems from the controversies that have surrounded the country star in recent years.
Back in 2021, for instance, he was caught on camera shouting a racial slur, and then brushed it off as intended to be “playful” and not said “in any derogatory manner.” In 2023, he was arrested for throwing a chair off a rooftop bar in Nashville, and more recently he sparked backlash after abruptly exiting the stage during the ending credits of SNL.
For the latter, he later shared an update on X/Twitter that read “Get me to God’s country” – which then became a meme and inspired some new merchandise from the singer.
