In 2023, Aldean received backlash for his song, “Try That in a Small Town,” which many critics called racially charged. The lyrics describe violent retribution for behavior like carjacking, cussing out cops, and lighting up flags. He sings: “Well, try that in a small town / See how far ya make it down the road / ‘Round here, we take care of our own / You cross that line, it won’t take long / For you to find out, I recommend you don’t / Try that in a small town.”
In response, Aldean defended the song as a tribute to the tight-knit communities he had grown up in and declared it was not about race. After the attempted assassination of Trump in July 2024, Aldean dedicated a performance of the song to him, saying: “President Trump’s a friend of mine, so I want to send this next song out to him.”
