What did Tim McGraw say about Jason Aldean controversy?
There are many fellow country singers including Brantley Gilbert who have spoken out in support of Jason Aldean. Now, in a recent interview, country legend Tim McGraw was asked about the song and the controversy.
It was an awkward situation when the question was asked and obvious Tim didn’t really want to get in the middle of it all.
AP Entertainment shared the interview clip on Twitter. In the interview, Tim said, “I’ll be completely honest, I’ve heard all the hubbub about it, but I haven’t heard the song, and I haven’t seen the video, so I couldn’t intelligently give an answer. So I really don’t know.”
McGraw continued to say, “I haven’t seen it, but I’m not going to tell an artist what they should cut, or what my opinion is. I’ll tell you what I like and I’ll let my songs sort of speak for themselves.” He concluded the talk by saying, “You’re an artist and you cut the songs you want to cut and you deal with the consequences.”
As Jason tours, he continues to speak to fans and thank them for their unwavering support.
