The online debate about his win didn't seem to question Morgan Wallen's talent. Instead, people highlighted his offensive language and how recently this scandal occurred. An angry Twitter user shared, "Morgan Wallen wins Album of the Year. Racist country fans can rejoice!" Another angry fan added some strong language we'd rather not share. "We stan Marren Morris and all country artists who did not clap when Morgan Wallen won," they began their message. Yet another disheartened fan added, "By awarding Morgan Wallen Album of the Year tonight the Academy of Country Music voters are saying they don't take racism very seriously. They're saying they don't care about 1) the black fans of country music or 2) potentially gaining black fans of country music. It's despicable"

As with anything in our current U.S. culture; however, there were representatives of both sides of this debate. One happy Twitter fan described the win gleefully. "Morgan #Wallen wins Album of the Year for Dangerous! THE CANCEL CULTURE HAS BEEN CANCELED," they enthused. On a lighter note, another Twitter fan added some colorful award show fashion commentary. They said that his outfit made the singer look like he was "possibly auditioning to be the lead in the touring company for 'Hamilton.'"
