Gospel legend Pat Boone said the country music genre is becoming “sick” after a barrage of attempts to cancel Jason Aldean for filming the music video for an anti-riot song in front of a Tennessee courthouse critics say a man was hanged 100 years ago.
Aldean denied the song “Try That in a Small Town” has any racist intentions or undertones.
The tune describes how rural America will not accept the same riotous behavior and criminality that has besieged many urban areas since 2020.
“These references are not only meritless but dangerous,” Aldean said, after criticism of his use of the Maury County Courthouse in Columbia, Tenn., was used as a backdrop.

Oh, I get it now.
Saying “Try this in a Small Town” is hateful and racist - yet burning American cities to the ground, looting, destroying property, attacking the police, destroying businesses for night after night after night - without consequence, is A-OK.
Got it.
Downloaded the song yesterday and I’m not a country music fan.
Pat should have kept quiet and let most of us with the thought that he had quietly passed away.
Uh Pat Boone agrees with Aldean
And is criticising the woke whiners
Should read:
“Try that in a Small Town”
He’s still alive? I thought he was dead decades ago.
He’s a flaming liberal/Leftist?
In the headline it seems to be saying that Pat Boone regards the song as a moral sickness, but in the first sentence it implies that people accusing the song of racism are suffering from a moral sickness.
Which is it?
My bad
Sounds like maybe you should have read the article rather then just the head line.
Go ice your knee. It has gotten a bit over active.
Did you even read the article you posted?
Where was this fkn guy guy with all the wonderful verbage in rap music!!?? Man these people make me sick...
Anybody who knows Pat Boone knows which side he’s on here.
My read of the article is that Boone does think that country has gone down hill, but that he support’s Aldean. The writer seems intent on obscuring the point.
I reacted the same with the stupid headline. Pat agrees with the song
Uh, it appears Pat completely agrees with Aldean.
??????
READ the article .Boone is saying Akdean’s sing is Right.
Yes, the headline greatly distorts what I perceive as his actual position.
In the first sentence of the cited material, Pat Boone appears to be going after those people in the country music industry that are trying to shut down Aldean's song.
But the headline implies the opposite.
See post 15
Pat is fully supporting Jason.
You have this 180 degrees wrong.
