Jason Aldean addresses 'Try That in a Small Town' controversy during Iowa State Fair show
Des Moines Register ^ | 8/21/23 | Jay Stahl

Then, nearly halfway through his State Fair set, Aldean announced a new album slated for release in November and addressed the controversy surrounding "Try That in a Small Town" at length. Aldean shouted out Allison, who received a hero's welcome from his hometown crowd.

Aldean said the song is about turning on the television every day and looking at what's happening and being like, "what in the hell is wrong with all these people. This is not right."

"In this day and age, man, every time you do something the public or the media doesn't agree with, or one certain side of the public doesn't agree with, they want to cancel everybody," Aldean said. "'You offended somebody.' Well, you can't do anything these days without offending somebody. That's just the way it is."

Typical enemedia claptrap. What “controversy” are they talking about?

This song isn’t controversial.

I’m more curious why anyone would invite the Dixie Chicks to the Iowa State Fair. Whoever is in charge of talent should be fired.

What controversy?

Exactly, since when do we allow the Cultural Marxists to define what is “controversial”?

It’s only a “controversy” to cult-following leftists.
