Not a bad song overall but I was just thinking about how Valory is wasting time promoting music and this comes up. We will see how it does but based off of his last radio single it’s not looking good however this has already got a few adds.

I have not been impressed by this guy yet, but this is actually one of the better outputs and "most country" song I heard from him. The vocal arrangement does not sound as grating as his other songs, and I could not tell that it was the same guy who sang trash like Dirt Road. The production is also decent, and far better than those trap/rap style he had in other songs. I still think that the vocal at the chorus is pretty rough, and the melody is not really distinct, but if he keeps going to this direction, I might be able to enjoy his music.

He has another song coming out tonight called "Lesson Learned."

I've seen him live and seeing him again in a couple months! Big fan of his music! I hope he takes off like his buddy Bailey Zimmerman did.

Now that he’s got a song out, I need UMG to release a song from CB30 And I’ll be happy 😎

This is lowkey kind of a bop. I could see it doing well. I've been thinking it was only a matter of time before they tried (again) to break him at radio. He's definitely got potential to make some waves at the format given his streaming presence so far.

His new song that dropped last night.

Picking up a station and spins:

KIDD G Daylight Savings 1 17

16 adds on add week with 19 total stations by add week.

While not completely DOA that is not an encouraging start to say the least as I have always found 16 adds to be the bare minimum an artist should get if they are on a major label. I know this guy has his fans and is popular overall. But I just don't see him as an artist that connects with radio.

The one thing that could help this song is that Kkgo added it which should help audience a decent amount but it still would need a lot of support from other stations.

Picked up another 9 adds this week despite a rather soft initial adds date last week, so it seems like there's still a bit of interest from radio. If it keeps pulling them in, I could see this eventually charting at least.

I can barely discern a melody here… I’ll pass.
