    This is hardly a "new" album - we've heard most of these songs before. '2016' sets up the album and makes you think maybe Sam Hunt has turned a page and has given us a borderline decent country record. But then it's all downhill from there with the same sleazy, generic rap/rnb mixes. Yawn.

    Sam Hunt can write decent lyrics, at times. Unfortunately, even when he does, he's let down by a cliched production.

    At this point mixing Hip-hop and Country is nothing new. "Nothing New" is also an apt two word description of this album.

    This is a bro-country record with NOTHING in the way of creativity. Random lyrics about girls, tens of different genres mixed and marketed as songs. Avoid at all costs.

    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.
