'In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I (direct quote) was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests,' he tweeted on Tuesday. Now, Aldean is speaking out about the song and video. Greg Price, communications director for the conservative State Freedom Caucus Network, described the music video as 'absolutely epic,' saying it 'rips into the left-wing riots, soft on crime governance in cities, gun control, and other leftist degradation.' 'Apparently this is 'controversial' and hateful according to the left,' Collin Rugg, the co-owner of Trending Politics said. Those scenes are set against traditional patriotic Americana scenes – soldiers in war, people hunting, a family on a farm, kids playing hopscotch, and a farmer saying in his community, 'somebody needs some help, you'll get it.' That was mixed with footage of more violent demonstrations, as well as security footage of seemingly random robberies. Many fans, however, have applauded the song, saying the music video 'calls out left-wing violence, specifically violence against law enforcement.' The music video puts a strong emphasis on the protests against police brutality that have rocked the nation for several years now, showing footage of protestors confronting cops. 'You should know that better than anyone having survived a mass shooting.

There's nothing small-town or American about promoting violence,' she said. 'Even people in small towns are sick of violence.

Even fellow country music star Sheryl Crow spoke out, saying 'I'm from a small town.'
