Jason Aldean ‘Small Town’ backlash: Country singer, wife Brittany fight back amid controversies

Jason Aldean ‘Small Town’ backlash: Country singer, wife Brittany fight back amid controversies

Fox News
Thursday, July 20, 2023 8:20 AM GMT

Jason Aldean's "Try That in a Small Town" music video backlash is just the latest controversy the country star has faced in recent years.

"Try That in a Small Town" was released in May, and the lyrics speak to small towns not putting up with riots and lawlessness many cities faced in the summer of 2020.

Some of the lyrics in the song included in Aldean's forthcoming, as-yet-untitled album include, "Got a gun that my granddad gave me, They say one day they're gonna round up, Well, that s--t might fly in the city, good luck, Try that in a small town, See how far ya make it down the road, You cross that line, it won't take long, For you to find out, I recommend you don't, Try that in a small town."

Scenes from the music video were shot outside the Maury County Courthouse in Columbia, Tennessee, where an 18-year-old Black man named Henry Choate was lynched in 1927. The courthouse was also a pivotal site during the Columbia race riot in 1946.
