The music video for “Try That in a Small Town” faced backlash from the snowflakes who accused it of evoking racism.

It seems like the more the cancel culture tries to silence Aldean, the louder his fans become.

And Aldean himself has hit back at these ridiculous accusations. In a tweet, he defended his song, stating that there is not a single lyric that references race and that all the video clips are real news footage. He argued that people are entitled to their own interpretations of music, but when it comes to falsely accusing someone of racism, it goes too far.
During a performance in Cincinnati, Aldean addressed the issue of cancel culture, calling it a real threat to people’s lives and livelihoods. He thanked his fans for seeing through the nonsense and for supporting him. And to prove that he won’t be silenced, Aldean proudly performed “Try That in a Small Town” to an adoring crowd.
This is a victory for free speech and artistic expression. It shows that despite the attempts of the woke mob to cancel anything that doesn’t align with their narrow-minded ideology, real talent and passion will always prevail. Jason Aldean is living proof that you can’t keep a good artist down.
