    Can't Say I Ain't Country is a successful blend of the cosmopolitan and country, sounding as assured on soulful slow jams and percolating crossover pop as it does on the breakneck twang of "Y'all Boys," a duet with their protégé HARDY.

    Even though their unique music production always nudges musical boundaries, Can't Say I Ain't Country attempts to knock down musical barriers by affixing a fresh glow on past country music trends.

    The result is an uneven record that leaves country’s most irreverent hitmakers sounding needlessly cautious.

    For all the shopping-mall feel of their songs, they can be industrially catchy. ... If only their lyrics weren’t so cringey.

    Can’t Say I Ain’t Country is an amalgamation of country-pop’s worst features. It’s country without the grit or emotion; pop without any of the fun or hooks.

    The latest release from Florida Georgia Line is a tough listen, to say the least. Generic pandering is put in place of genuine storytellingThe latest release from Florida Georgia Line is a tough listen, to say the least. Generic pandering is put in place of genuine storytelling and they musically play it safe with formulaic song structures and mundane instrumentation. This album is void of any redeeming qualities.… Full Review »

    Perhaps would give this higher rating if it weren't named 'Can't Say I Ain't Country.' Stupid and disrespectful.
