Yes, other people listen as well, but the base of country has always been the story-telling and a strong small-town America thread runs through most of it.

Jason Aldean has been making some waves in country music and a lot of people have said his latest song ‘Try That In A Small Town’ is hateful and it was implied it supported lynching. CMT pulled the video from rotation and people are talking about the song even more.

NEW: Country Music Television has pulled Jason Aldean’s music video ‘Try That In A Small Town’ in response to media outrage.
In the music video, Aldean calls out left-wing violence, specifically violence against law enforcement.
Apparently this is ‘controversial’ and hateful… pic.twitter.com/Jq9D678s6G

CMT has been going a little off the deep end lately. The last CMT music awards did NOT focus on their audience base that is for certain and it seems they are all too happy to continue to pretend like the people who listen to country music are not from small rural areas.
Yes, other people listen as well, but the base of country has always been the story-telling and a strong small-town America thread runs through most of it.
CMT has confirmed that, after initially airing Jason Aldean’s highly controversial music video for ‘Try That in a Small Town,’ the network pulled the contentious clip from the air on Monday. https://t.co/t4GO1XUIHs
