    Southside is, for most of its 12 songs, a showcase for Hunt's affable charm and playlist-era approach to making music.

    Southside’s experiments are made with enviable effortlessness: It’s a little rough around the edges, not self-consciously provocative. Hunt doubled down on his initial mission—making hip-hop and R&B in country sound hip instead of hokey—and it paid off with this collection of songs that are, more than anything else, fun.

    Classic gestures are all over Southside, though Hunt thankfully has no interest in doing something so straightforward.

    Mellow, multi-purpose country-pop designed to soundtrack good times at home, on the road, at the office, or at a bar.

    Hunt is at his most exciting when he fuses the past and the present (“Let It Down” truly shines bright) into ambitious creations that hint at even greater promise ─ but his second offering is largely a mixed bag.

    There are worse purveyors of bro-country spiced up with hip-hop (here’s looking at you, Florida Georgia Line), and Hunt has an ear for melody, but his reliance on lyrical clichés and hit-you-over-the-head genre fusion makes Southside worth little more than a shrug.
