It will mark Wallen's first performance at a major awards ceremony since last year's controversy, which saw him banned from the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, among others
The country singer was barred from attending and being nominated at last year's ACM Awards
The country star's performance at the event named after the civil rights leader comes almost a year after he was filmed saying a racial slur
The singer, who was recently banned from the CMA Awards, made a surprise appearance in Nashville over the weekend
Wallen, who was recently banned from the CMA Awards, currently has the Number One rap song in the US
This is despite him being nominated for Album of the Year
A new report claims the disgraced country star has thus far only reached out to one group
“I had no idea that the guy's music I posted was recently found saying racist comments”
The musician was handed the ban after a video surfaced of him using a racial slur
