Is "Try That In A Small Town" A RACIST Song? We DEBATE | The Left Wing 13.1
from The Left Wing · host The Left Wing
The music video for Jason Aldean's new single “Try That in a Small Town" has been the center of controversy in recent weeks as many fans have accused him of encouraging violence and racism with the song's lyrics. The song sparked controversy yet again when the music video was released in July, as social media users pointed out the contentious imagery throughout. In a statement to PEOPLE, TackleBox confirmed Aldean did not pick the video location and refuted speculation about its history of lynching being tied to the video's filming. On July 25, The Washington Post reported that the music video was altered to remove a Fox 5 Atlanta clip that featured violent confrontations that occurred during the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests.
