“I love our country, I want to see it restored to what it once was before all this bulls—t started happening to us,” the singer said Friday.
Jason Aldean is standing his ground after people slammed his latest music video, “Try That in A Small Town,” for racist and “pro-lynching” connotations.
The music video, released last week, features the “Dirt Road Anthem” crooner singing in front of the Maury County Courthouse in Columbia, Tenn., with an American flag draped over the front of the building.Videos of protesters going up against police officers and burning American flags were projected onto the building as Aldean, 46, belted out the controversial lyrics.
While Aldean is the voice of the song, the lyrics were originally written by Kelley Lovelace, Kurt Allison, Neil Thrasher and Tully Kennedy.As Page Six previously reported, fans and critics quickly took to social media to point out a historical reference to the Grammy nominee’s location choice in the music video.
