The video, which was released on Friday, features Aldean singing about the dangers of challenging the status quo in a small town. The lyrics include lines such as “Cuss out a cop, spit in his face / Stomp on the flag and light it up / Yeah, ya think you’re tough / Well, try that in a small town / See how far ya make it down the road.”
The video also features footage of protests and riots, as well as scenes of violence. This has led some to accuse Aldean of promoting violence and intolerance.
Aldean has defended the song, saying that it is not about promoting violence, but rather about the importance of community and standing up for what you believe in.
However, CMT has decided to pull the video from rotation. In a statement, the network said that it “does not condone the views expressed in the song or the video.”
This is not the first time that Aldean has been involved in controversy. In 2017, he was criticized for wearing blackface for a Halloween costume. He has also been outspoken about his conservative political beliefs, which has led to some fans boycotting his music.
The controversy surrounding “Try That In A Small Town” is the latest example of the growing divide in American culture. As the country becomes more polarized, artists are increasingly finding themselves in the crosshairs of both sides of the political spectrum.
It remains to be seen how this controversy will affect Aldean’s career. However, it is clear that the song has struck a nerve with many people, and it is likely to continue to be debated for some time to come.
