Country-music network CMT pulled Jason Aldean’s video for his latest hit «Try That in a Small Town,» after days of accusations of racism and gun fetishism.
“Try that on CMT,” Jason Aldean just got told.
The country-music network pulled Mr. Aldean’s video for his latest hit ”Try That in a Small Town,” after days of accusations of racism and gun fetishism.
The network confirmed to Variety on Tuesday that it had pulled the clip effective the previous day, but it did not release a public comment.
The song, backed by a new video that went online last week, says that the chaos you see in big cities wouldn’t happen in rural America.
According to Vulture, the video features news footage projected on the Maury County courthouse, where a lynching took place in the 1920s.
