Wallen also went ahead and promised his fans, “I’m gonna start doing the leaking of the songs myself”. He’s since posted links to the songs Warning, Dangerous, and Rednecks, Red Letters, Red Dirt on his Instagram Story. Despite sharing part of a name, Wallen doesn’t have much allegiance toward Walmart. He said in his Instagram story, “It’s kind of messed up, but I don’t shop at Walmart anyway”. He then said, “I also gave Target two extra songs. So if you’re going to buy my album physically, go to Target, baby.” He also tagged Target as the location when he posted the video to Instagram.
