For over a week now, country music singer Jason Aldean has faced criticism from the left. The backlash stems from his new hit song, Try That in a Small Town.
Democrats claim the song is racist and sympathetic towards lynchings. However, a closer look at the lyrics reveals a different story.
Amid these attacks, Aldean released a statement affirming that any accusations of racism or pro-lynching in Try That in a Small Town are false.
In a show of support, fellow music star Cody Johnson has come to Aldean’s defense, according to Billboard.
Speaking Truth to Power
During a performance at the Chaifetz Arena, Johnson emphasized that, like Aldean, he considers himself a patriotic American. In addition to encouraging Aldean, Johnson announced to his own audience that he fully supports the country music star.

Seeing Through the Lies
Despite efforts from Democrats and the mainstream media, many Americans can see past the blatant misrepresentations of Try That in a Small Town.
