Jason Aldean’s ‘Try That In A Small Town’ Hits #1 On Chart After CMT Caved To Woke Mob…
Country music star Jason Aldean’s fans are listening. The question is, is the rest of the country?
Aldean has been the target of leftist fulminations this week over a video released Friday to accompany his song “Try That in a Small Town,” skewering the riots that burned American cities in 2020 and the rampant crime that’s continuing today.
But the most brazen public attempt to shut him down has apparently backfired — badly.
On Tuesday, CMT, the paid TV network that dominates programming of country music videos, concerts and country-western fare, surrendered almost preemptively to screeching from the left to pull Aldean’s video from its rotation.
On Wednesday, the song had the hit No. 1 on the iTunes chart.
