When Morgan Wallen deactivated his Instagram account without explanation on June 23, fans immediately expected big news. @morganwallen only brought up an error code when searched. Some theorized that Wallen was in legal trouble again while some began to believe new music was on the way. As he began to tease some new collabs and releases, it became clear that the 'Whiskey Glasses,' singer was planning a reveal.

No big announcements have been made about an album yet, but fans are still speculating something big from the country superstar. On July 4, he will be releasing his already viral song, 'Lies Lies Lies.' The same day he will be playing at Hyde Park in the United Kingdom to continue his 'One Thing At A Time' Tour. 

Wallen is the not the first artists to disappear from social media public view for awhile. Causing a stir, popular music stars have been using this strategy to hint at big releases for awhile now. Coincidence or not, ERNEST, who collaborated with Wallen on multiple occasions also deactivated his account around the same time. ERNEST has also contributed to many of Morgans hit songs and anticipated new songs as a songwriter. ERNEST has also made an appearance at many of Wallens latest shows. Given their musical past together and friendship, many followers are sugggesting that the timing of their accounts disappearing is not by chance. 

This year has been full of new surprises by Morgan. He opened his bar in Nashville, This Bar, named after the hit song off of his 'Dangerous' double album. Some unexpected collabs also topped the charts for Wallen. 'I Had Some Help' with Post Malone sat number one, and recently he was featured on 'Whiskey Whiskey' by Moneybagg Yo.

It is evident that Morgan Wallen is cooking something up for the fans, but he is not giving fans many answers, especially those Instagram followers.
