Country music star Jason Aldean has denounced attempts to smear his song "Try That in a Small Town" as racist, and he fired back at the "bullsh**" narratives being pushed against him during a concert Friday night in Cincinnati, Ohio, drawing emphatic chants of "USA! USA!"

"I love our country," Aldean told his crowd between songs, as shown in videos shared on social media. "I want to see it restored to what it once was before all this bullsh** started happening to us.

"I love my country. I love my family, and I will do anything to protect that. I can tell you that right now."
