Crockett lashed out at White for inviting Satanic doo-wop group Twin Temple to join his tour after Crockett dropped them from his own. Jack White Trolls Charley Crockett Alex Young
On Tuesday, Charley Crockett took to Instagram to clarify his decision to remove Twin Temple from his tour. He attributed this move to production demands that he found "questionable" and also expressed concern over Twin Temple's Satanic theme not being suitable for an all-ages audience. Crockett also took a dig at Jack White, the organizer of the tour, accusing him of using the band's appearance to boost ticket sales.
Crockett expressed a significant drop in respect for White, also jokingly questioning why the musician wasn't as vocal about avoiding political issues during the White Stripes' heyday. It's worth noting that Crockett seemed to ignore White Stripes songs like "Icky Thump" or "The Union Forever" in forming this opinion.
Jack White responded to Crockett's accusations with a post that appeared to mock Charley's persona. He posted the lyrics to Shawn Brown's 1984 novelty rap, "Rappin' Duke," a track about a rapping John Wayne. In his post, White wrote, "I never said nothing about this young buck before, but since he’s trying to drag me into this here rodeo again, here’s my official response to Cowboy Charley’s accusations."
