Brantley Gilbert, a well-known country musician, lamented to his audience over the weekend that“ we don’t live in a society where people get punched in the face anymore.”
Gilbert clarifies the criticism he faced in reaction to the uproar around Jason Aldean’s recent single, “Try That in a Small Town,” a work of country music. The song explores the idea of common people banding together to oppose criminal activity or anti-national movements. Gilbert ascribes the controversy to “keyboard warriors,” people who have no prior experience speaking up in support of their opinions.
“So I got mad as hell the other night over this Aldean thing and I thought I was going to tweet something, or something, but I realized I don’t have the password for any of my social media. So I decided to write them sum bitches a song, I hope y’all like it,” Gilbert remarked before starting his most recent hit, “Bury Me Upside Down.”

“One of my pet peeves is we live in a society nowadays where people don’t get punched in the face anymore. Just a bunch of keyboard warriors hiding behind cell phones and laptops,” Gilbert added.
Gilbert, a well-known musician from Nashville, has bravely organized demonstrations against Bud Light because of their “woke” stance. He broke beer bottles on stage in a spectacular performance as the brewery tried to draw attention with free beverages and cans with camouflage prints.

Despite all the fuss, Aldean’s smash song is still dominating the iTunes store rankings and is still at the top as of Monday morning. A Republican governor has invited Aldean to play at a public function after being surprised by the song’s unexpected success. Aldean was also lauded by President Donald Trump, who called him a “terrific guy.” This endorsement comes after Country Music Television decided to take down the “Try That in a Small Town” music video because it contained images of left-wing rioting.
