NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP & 1010 WINS) — Country star Morgan Wallen has been suspended indefinitely from his record label after a video surfaced of him shouting a racial slur, and radio stations -- including Entercom stations -- have already removed his music from their playlists.

Big Loud Records said in a statement posted to social media on Wednesday that Wallen's contract has been suspended indefinitely. Republic Records, which he is co-signed to, said it agreed with Big Loud's decision and said "such behavior will not be tolerated."

CMT also said it is removing appearances by Wallen from all of its platforms.

1010 WINS' parent company Entercom, also said it is dropping Wallen from the playlists of its country stations. "In light of Morgan Wallen's recent use of a racial slur, we've discussed the incident with our Country brand leadership team and together have made the decision to remove Morgan's music from Entercom's playlists," a spokesman said.

The video (top), which was first published by TMZ on Tuesday night, showed Wallen outside a home in Nashville, Tennessee, yelling profanities and the n-word.

As Morgan gets out of a car and approaches his home's front door, he tells someone to watch over someone in his group. He says, "take care of this "p****a** mother******" .... "take care of this p****-a** n*****."

Wallen apologized for his remarks in a statement to TMZ.

"I used an unacceptable and inappropriate racial slur that I wish I could take back," he said. "There are no excuses to use this type of language, ever. I want to sincerely apologize for using the word. I promise to do better."

He's one of the genre's biggest young stars, with his new record, "Dangerous: The Double Album," spending three weeks atop the Billboard 200 chart, but the reaction from the music industry has been swift.

As of Wednesday morning, streaming apps like Spotify and Apple Music also don't have his songs in their most popular country music playlists, where normally Wallen had multiple songs from his new album.

The Tennessee-born singer has done a lot of public apologizing lately.

Wallen was arrested for public intoxication and disorderly conduct in May 2020 after getting kicked out of a downtown Nashville bar.

In October, "Saturday Night Live" dropped him from a scheduled performance on their show after he violated COVID-19 protocols when videos appeared on social media of him partying with fans in Alabama. He was later invited back on the show in December, where he appeared in a skit making fun of himself.
