In this video we examine Jason Aldean's latest hit music video for the Country Music Song, "Try That in a Small Town." While Country Music Television has decided to pull the video from its network, listeners supported the song and pushed it up to Number 2 on the Country Music charts.  

The downside, however, was that on the same site that the video was shot, where back in 1927, an 18 year old black man, Henry Choate, was hanged and wrongfully executed - lynched - for an attack on a white girl. Yergz examines the clandestine lifestyle of both White Power AND Black Power movements. In this day and age, neither just up and says, publicly, that they are racist. But it was from the video's portrayal of the small town; what appears to be a cross burning, a Molotov cocktail held by a white man, and the same courthouse that Jason Aldean sang in front of, that made Yergz believe that the video was racist, or had a racist overtone. And that only took 24 seconds!

Yergz then explains exactly what a Molotov cocktail is, and how this weapon would not only not be used by the Black Community, but that the one in the video is that of a white man. It just seems that if you had the Black Community supporting your message, you'd be able to get a black stuntman to hold the cocktail....

Back in April of 2018, Jason Aldean released "Rearview Town;" a song in the album of the same name, where he sings about wanting OUT of a small town, where small town life sucks. Continuing on how small town life may not be that great, Yergz quotes an article by Kathleen Diaz for Police1.com, where we learn that police are more than 3x likely to die on the job in a small town, versus the big city. So much for Mayberry and "Backing the Blue."

Then Yergz looks at the truth, and not being ignorant to the obvious. Yergz thinks of what we really know about the "Southern Way of Life;" MTG, Matt Gaetz, Racism, Slavery and White Power. Life in a small town now, versus Jason Aldean's life in a small town back in 2018, when he left it.

Play the song. Don't play the song. But all is not right in the world. And Yergz supports any artist's right to produce whatever music they want.
