Kind-of a corny song but it'll be a huge hit I'm sure.
With so many conservatives neck deep in their own cancel culture of artists who don't vote like them, they need folks like Aldean, Kid Rock and Trace Adkins to record them a song suiting their sensibilities I suppose.
The one lyric makes me wonder? How many of the 81 million folks that voted for Joe Biden do you think have ever stomped on an American flag?
I'm curious, because this trope comes up frequently among conservatives when characterizing liberals.
Do you think this is something folks who generally just prefer progressive policy over conservative policy like to do?
Judging from the footage shown in the video and footage of those past events, I would say that there are quite a few on the left side that like to do such things.
The video and Aldean were attacked as being "racist" and "inciting lynching". That's certainly not the case. Even with those attacks the song surged to #1 across multiple genres.
Copycat explained it quite well. People around where I live all know each other or "know of" each other. My wife gave a bunch of our extra harvest to the postmaster at our local post office. Many people use PO Boxes and when they come in to get their mail, the vegetables are there for them to take for free.
I harvest a lot of trees and cut/split them into firewood all the time. During the colder winter months, many of my neighbors know that they can come and get wood to heat their homes at my place for free.
On the "flip side" I have one neighbor that brings us fresh eggs from their chickens and I get fresh, raw unpasteurized milk from another farm near us. She also makes fresh cheese and ice cream that she shares with us.

I haven't seen anything attacking Aldean over the song or video.
Didn't even know that was going on. But, OK. I'm sure it is out there.
Everybody loves something to hate on these days.
The concept of people in small towns (or even neighborhoods within cities) looking out for one another is age old - and a perfectly fine topic for a song or discussion.
Sad that some folks think the topic is politically divided suddenly. I never knew it to be.
Do Democrats not share bumper crops with their neighbors? Do lefties not take practical steps to maintain civility in their communities when people threaten their peace?
Your comments in red are a clear indication of how easily manipulated people's perspectives can be.
You're allowing video clips of isolated incidents to lead you to a dubious conclusion.
Honestly, I thought you would give an answer indicating otherwise.
The thing is, footage of a burning or disgraced American Flag makes the vast majority of all Americans upset.
Not just people who vote for gun rights and anti-abortion laws.
I find it very odd that there is some strange belief that folks on the left are not patriotic.
Please don't buy into that horse [BLEEP]. It's a lie.
I would never disrespect any American flag or any holy book and I would discourage anyone from doing so if I had any influence over them.
But also
The person disrespecting them is trying to get a rise out of folks. Crying out for attention.
Once they've committed to such an act, the best thing to do is ignore them. Deprive them of the attention they were seeking.

I think that is on you. The song doesn’t mention left or right. Again, it’s about the community both left and right. Try some of what is shown in the video of actual historical events in a small town and you are just as likely to be confronted by a democrat as a republican. You are jumping to conclusions and inserting your own bias.

Quote:Country Music Television (CMT) says it will no longer air the music video "Try That In a Small Town" by Jason Aldean after critics of the video said it contained lyrics that glorified gun violence and conveyed traditionally racist ideas
As a musician yourself, please explain to me how the lyrics "glorify gun violence and convey traditionally racist ideas".
That's exactly what has been in the news recently.
The "cancel culture" of the left tried to shut him down including CMT.
Tell me how lyrics of music that those on the left traditionally listen to (rap/hip-hop) don't glorify gun violence or present an "anti-cop" rhetoric.

Well, I didn't see anything racist in the lyrics, but the article you linked explains why he's getting flack for the video as well as some stuff that is simply going to make the guy a target:
Quote:But much of the criticism around the video has less to do with these clips than its setting: The Maury County Courthouse building in Columbia, Tenn., which serves as an American-flag-draped backdrop for Aldean and his band.
The landmark was the site of [font=Georgia, serif]race riots in 1946 as well as a 1927 lynching in which a white mob pulled an 18-year-old black man, Henry Choate, from jail and dragged him through the city by car, according to several media reports, including one detailed account from [i]The Washington Post[/i].[/font]
And this, LOL:
Quote:His wife, Brittany Aldean, and his sister, Kasi Rosa Wicks, launched a conservative clothing line dedicated to trolling liberals. Aldean defended dressing his children in anti-Joe-Biden attire and himself for wearing blackface as part of a 2015 Halloween costume. He was spotted golfing alongside Donald Trump and delivered an impromptu performance at the former president's Mar-a-Lago resort.

I mean ^ that stuff is gonna make anything he does a target, no?
--------------------------------
Now, let's talk about the statement you've made in green above:
Does hip-hop now just belong to the left? I don't think that actually tracks.
Personally - I view music as art and art has always been provocative and used to push envelopes.
So - I don't get worked up over songs venturing into controversial territory. The only controversy in the lyric of this one seems to be promoting vigilanteism. But it's fairly innocuous IMO.
Guys, one of my favorite listens is Run the Jewels. They have a verse, delivered rapid-fire, telling prisoners to take over the jails, light all the furniture on fire, and waterboard any prison worker they catch.
I don't want any of those things to happen. Neither do they, actually. But they're good rhymes. If you just like Jason Aldean and what he does and sings about that's great. He's not a bad musician, not at all, and his lyrics are fine on the level of provocative fantasy. But if you tell me to take it literally, I will, and I'll judge you for it.
NYC has a hard time seeing how he's a part of the problem, as do all the moderates on this board. He casually uses words like "far right" and "extremists" without even considering how those words have been distorted by the left. He can't even acknowledge that the leftist media intentionally misleads. There's plenty of examples. These people are mouthpieces, and the problem starts at the top of the party, the same way the problems from the right often originate at the top. He doesn't want to acknowledge that there are forces out there working in the best interests of themselves... who neglect the needs of Americans. They don't even want America to exist. This isn't because they hate America, but because they see a global society as a superior goal, and that means redistributing American wealth and American independence. Not their wealth, of course. They will happily pull people to the top who parrot their talking points and have influence. However, they will suppress and lie and cajole whenever it suits their interests, convincing the people that they are honest and upright, while those who would challenge their narrative are evil and misguided. Disinformation. Russia. Domestic terrorists. Conspiracists. Anyone that doesn't toe the line is given a label and cast into the fire, while the "enlightened" non-thinkers among us are happy to dance and watch it all burn, so long as they don't have to acknowledge that they are the problem.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation decided to do their job and investigate, but True the Vote is refusing to turn over any evidence. So the GBI subpoenaed the alleged evidence, and True the Vote tried to withdraw their claims. The GBI says these are serious allegations, and we need the evidence, so we will not withdraw our subpoena.
Go read the other side of the story to get their input before you just decide GA is right because the WSJ gave you talking points. Cases won't be won in GA with Rats in charge.
Look at why they only wanted 250 numbers, look at the parameters used to filter the list down. It wasn't little Susie going to the library every day after school. The criteria was frankly way too strict and they had to go to certain locations to pickup ballots and then multiple drop boxes.

Basically, True the Vote and 2000 Mules alleged some serious wrongdoing in the 2000 Presidential vote in Georgia. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation decided to do their job and investigate, but True the Vote is refusing to turn over any evidence. So the GBI subpoenaed the alleged evidence, and True the Vote tried to withdraw their claims. The GBI says these are serious allegations, and we need the evidence, so we will not withdraw our subpoena.

Is Brunswick a small town?
No. Neither is Macon in case you are wondering.
