Toby Keith - The Taliban Song

Calling Toby Keith a controversial figure does the word “controversial” an injustice. Keith has been the subject of many news stories, ranging from public squabbles with other artists to accusations of racism. His notoriety reached an all time high with his public feud with Natalie Maines, but certainly spiked upon releasing “The Taliban Song.”

He recorded this song in 2003 after performing it for military audiences multiple times. He had written the song to boost morale of the troops fighting the war in Afghanistan. Just before Keith recorded “The Taliban Song”, the United States had invaded Iraq and many people had begun fervently attacking U.S. military involvement in the Middle East.

“The Taliban Song” is extremely catchy and, at first, seems like a funny, innocent song. It pokes fun at the Taliban.
