Country star Jason Aldean defies liberal critics, gives major pro-America speech at packed concert venue….
County music superstar Jason Aldean has found himself in a firestorm of controversy after many on the left claimed one of his latest hit songs was somehow racist and inflammatory.
The song, “Try That In A Small Town,” has been criticized with claims it promotes vigilantism and gun violence. The controversy escalated when Country Music Television (CMT) decided to remove the song’s music video from its platform.
The video features real-life footage of violent riots and crime, largely from the ‘summer of riots’ in 2020, combined with the song’s lyrics, and has been widely criticized for its divisive content.
Despite the backlash, Aldean remained undeterred, and during a concert this week, he directly addressed the crowd with an epic Pro-America rant, and the crowd went absolutely wild.

“Well I gotta tell you guys it’s been a long ass week. It’s been a long week and I’ve seen a lot of stuff suggesting I’m this, suggesting I’m that,” he began. “What I am is a proud American,” he went on as the crowd cheered loudly.
“I love our country and I want to see it restored to what it once was before this bullshit started happening to us. I love my country, I love my family and I’ll do anything to protect that,” he concluded as the crowd roared with approval and began chanting, “USA! USA! USA!”’

Aldean’s “Try That In A Small Town” has become the sixth-most played song on Spotify as the anti-riot, pro-gun anthem continues its run of success in the face of left-wing backlash.
The artist himself has addressed the issue on social media.
“In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests. These references are not only meritless but dangerous,” Aldean wrote in a tweet earlier this week.
