after Aldean released the music video, which depicts protesters confronting police officers and was pulled from CMT.the Billboard Hot 100 chart, ranking just under BTS member Jung Kook's"Seven," featuring Latto, which was released on July 14.
Some songs re-joined the Hot 100 decades after they were released – like Kate Bush's 1985 hit"Running Up That Hill," which reached No. 3 after it was played during a"Stranger Things" episode in 2022. In the country song, Aldean sings:"Cuss out a cop, spit in his face, stomp on the flag and light it up, yeah, ya think you're tough. Well, try that in a small town. See how far ya make it down the road. Around 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."
Aldean defended the song – which seemingly dares people to try protesting in small American towns – saying not a single lyric"references race or points to it." He also said all the clips in the music video are from news footage.
