NEAL MCCOY DOES IT FIRST: ASKS CMT TO PULL HIS VIDEOS

Audio By Carbonatix

Jason Aldean has at least one country singer ready to go to the mat for him. While rumors persisted through the weekend that Luke Bryan, Morgan Wallen and others had petitioned CMT to pull their videos in a show of support for Jason Aldean, those rumors were just that - rumors. A CMT rep put out a statement debunking them, saying no artist had asked the network to pull their videos.

Until now.

One artist has stepped forward and issued a statement of solidarity with Aldean, going so far as to ask the network to pull their videos from rotation. That's not a huge ask, however, as the artist in question is Neal McCoy - he of the run of 90's hits who hasn't had a hit single since 2010's "Billy's Got His Beer Goggles On." In a Facebook post, McCoy posted, "I am seeing where some of my more popular Country Music Padnuh’s are separating themselves from CMT. In solidarity, I am asking that CMT removes all of my current videos. In support of the Jason Aldean video that has recently been removed. (That’ll show ’em.)"

So is McCoy serious? It's hard to tell. For a 90's icon like he is, there's not much risk in asking the network to pull his "current videos." Also, the tag of "That'll show 'em" to the Facebook post could be more sarcastic than combative, indicating McCoy could just be having some fun with this.
