I’m writing y’all from a duck hunting trip because I want to fill you in on something happening tonight.

Back in 2014, I went to Florida to try my hand at making original music & songwriting for the first time. This led to a recording deal with a local investor & an artist management deal that I deeply regret. Unfortunately, I signed both deals without any legal representation.

We made 13 songs. Some were ok, most were terrible as I was just learning how to write in general & figuring it all out. I was not the only collaborator, so many of these songs were not my idea nor to my standards. We deemed 5 worthy-enough to make the Stand Alone EP which includes a fan-favorite, “Spin You Around.”

Tonight, those colleagues I parted ways with almost 10 years ago plan to release a “10th Anniversary” edition of Stand Alone against my wishes & include 8 unreleased songs, distributing it with the assistance of my former managers. For months I’ve been exploring every avenue possible to acquire the rights to this old music & keep the quality of my catalog consistent with songs I choose to release & believe in.

It’s gross, greedy & an example of how the dark side of the music business can suck the soul out of artists.

I want you to know this is NOT my new music & I don’t want to see this happen to anyone else. I cringe when I listen to these songs & I’m concerned my fans may mistakenly believe this is a new release by me. I begin recording my next project at the end of February. I’m feeling inspired creatively & super excited to make more music I’m proud of.

In response:
1. I re-recorded “Spin You Around (1/24)” this week in Nashville & it comes out TONIGHT. 
Thank you Joey Moi & Bryan Sutton.  I did the artwork myself while in the woods duck hunting. Hope you like it, lol.

2. I am donating $100k from the Morgan Wallen Foundation to the Volunteer Lawyers & Professionals For The Arts (VLPA) program. I hope young aspiring musicians read this story & know they should never have to give up their creative freedoms for an opportunity in this business. 

3. Trust me, when new music is ready, you’ll hear it directly from me.

@fqArkansas @will_whitson2 how we lose an in state kid in basketball?

[Danny West @DannyWest247]

You'd be feeling a lot better if that was their first loss of the season, but it isn't.

Caffeine is such an underutilized tool in youth sports. If your pitcher is tired after throwing 130 pitches in a game have him shotgun a Red Bull and throw game two. #BeElite

@espn Absolutely not the refs for college basketball this year were a disgrace

There was no flagrant 2 for this. Good job SEC refs.

WE ARE SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS !!!!

[JC Hoops @JacksonCollier]

Officiating has been a hot-button topic across all of college basketball this season. Razorback fans have been very vocal with their displeasure. Do they have a case?

Dear Lord, I trust you.
I will not overthink.
I will not worry
I will not stress out.
I will rest in you today.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
