If people aren't interested in her as a solo artist, I hope Lauren gets 20 #1s as a featured artist. It seems like her fellow artists really love her.

Love “Nothing Out Here” but with Rhett putting his own features and multiple songs on radio I doubt that would work anytime soon. Hardy is one of my favorite writers so it would be nice to see him get some success with his own music.

I'm a fan of Lauren Alaina and Devin Dawson and would welcome the opportunity for both of them to piggyback their way to another hit, but yikes @ Hardy. This song has way too much of him and barely any of the other two, and his voice remains terrible (and one of my other main takeaways from the song was picking up on that awful nursery rhyme lyric being thrown in there, bleh). I'm unfortunately gonna have to pass on this one, and as much as I'd like it to do well for the two featured acts, I'd still rather this song fail to take off. I'll also be disappointed if this in any way gives country radio an excuse to hinder the success of "Getting Good," which is incredible and deserves to blossom into a smash unlike this garbage.

anything off the hixtape would be great on the radio but this is my last favorite of all of them. my favorite is the tracy Lawrence, jake owen song then the song with Thomas Rhett.

This is going to mess with "Getting Good". Which is such a bummer. I also expect Chris Young to pick "Town Ain't Big Enough" as his next single (given its streaming success) after "Drowning" which will further push Lauren Alaina away from getting a hit on her own.

I personally enjoyed REDNECKER, so I'm excited to hear the rest of his stuff. Lauren Alaina and Devin Dawson being on this is a huge plus too.

Hixtape was probably my favorite album this year. I usually don’t like every song on an album, but I have really enjoyed all of the songs on this one. This song is really catchy to me so hopefully it’ll give all of these artists a boost, especially LA.

There were better options on the album, but this is still a solid single option for radio. Very catchy stuff coming from HARDY these days.

There were some good songs on Hixtape and Hardy definitely has talent as a writer but this is one of my least favorite tracks on that album.

Don't be shocked if this song is HARDY's big breakthrough with country radio and the general public at large (and also gets Lauren Alaina and Devin Dawson back on the radar with country radio). As this song is at #125 all genre, has already made it up to #42 on the Hot Country Song Chart, and only has a little over 600k in audience judging by it's spin leaders on AllAccess and it doesn't go for adds in a couple of weeks.
As much as I am annoyed this could easily halt "Getting Good" chart run, I will gladly take country radio at least playing Lauren Alaina in a feature track than not at all. I will also say I like how her and HARDY harmonize and this song is a total earworm, and I also like the story aspect of the lyrics. Such a solid song and I have a feeling this will be one of the songs of the summer this year and be one of the biggest hits of the genre.

Solid music video, and Lauren Alaina looks great and I am glad they had all 3 artists in the music video even if it was just them standing there. Loved the story the music video told.
I am so ready for this song to take off on radio, it is short, catchy, and tells a story (if very simple) for country radio. Also sales remain great as this song is just outside the Top 100 all genre on iTunes

Ugh, Hardy's voice is just SO bad. This is probably going to take off and be a hit, but it's just ruined by his voice and the features are totally wasted because Lauren Alaina and Devin Dawson are barely even utilized on the song. I'm gonna try to be happy that it'll give both Lauren and Devin another hit on the charts, but it's disappointing that I can't enjoy the song. Glad they at least got to be backdrops in the music video, too.

I like the song and love the features (honestly would pay a lot to hear Lauren and Devin do it as a full duet), Hardy doesn’t have the worst vocals we’ve ever heard, but he’s not great either. The positives outweigh the negatives on this one though.

Second most added song with 33 adds for add week, which is about what I expected for this song since HARDY doesn't have a ton of momentum at country radio (really neither do Devin Dawson or Lauren Alaina) but I imagine early sales and buzz around this song at least has country radio interested.

Debuts at #49 on Mediabase. Very great start for this song and sales remain very good as well (#118 all genre), definitely feels like country radio is a bit more on board with this than they were with "Rednecker"

"One Beer" enters the Top 30 on Mediabase at #30 tonight as the song gained 115 spins this week. This song is HARDY and Devin Dawson's 2nd time appearing in the Top 30 ("Rednecker" and "All On Me" respectively beforehand) , and Lauren Alaina's 5th time in the Top 30 ("Georgia Peaches", "Road Less Traveled", "What Ifs", "Doin Fine" beforehand).
This song has been at a pretty steady consistent rate and I imagine barring terrible callout scores this should be at least a Top 15 to Top 10 single for all the artists involved if not higher.

Why do I actually really like this song though? The first time i heard it I did not think twice then all of a sudden it was in my head and i was playing it on repeat lol
Huge plus that Lauren is on the song. Shes so talented but just cant seem to break through with her solo music for some reason hoping this helps!

Really speaks to how well this song is connecting if it is already on the Hot 100 despite just now entering the Top 30 on country radio. Also this song got 18 adds this week on Mediabase. This song is definitely shaping up to be a huge hit and is starting to remind me a bit of a "What Ifs" diet 2.0 (ironically enough both songs have Lauren Alaina) in the sense of a hot selling collaboration that is connecting very well despite none of the artists being mega established with country radio at the time.

Wouldn't be surprised to see this song hit #1 later this year...it definitely seems to be shaping up to be a pretty big hit.
Still, I'm not sure I see any of the artists involved (including lead singer HARDY) being able to sustain their success after this one peaks (regardless of where it peaks), but I guess we'll have to wait and see. Lauren Alaina should be a much bigger star than she is, but sadly I don't know if that'll ever happen.

I think HARDY has a place on country radio just due to the fact that the songs he writes for himself and others fit pretty well. It's pretty interesting to me that all of FGL's contemporaries surpassed them imo as far as song substance is concerned. Maybe that was never hard to do, but I've liked Hardy's stuff more than I ever enjoyed FGL.

I kind of would like to see HARDY become the DJ Khalid of country music, bringing us star studded collaborations that the genre isn’t accustomed to seeing all the time. His Hixtape is stacked with catchy songs, many which I think would smash if properly promoted. I don’t think he’s talented enough as a vocalist to become a huge solo act, but if he brings more fire collaborations I could see him carving out a unique niche and sticking around for a while.

Got a good laugh when this song was introduced on Big Time With Whitney Allen and they just said HARDY & Lauren Alaina with absolute zero mention of Devin Dawson, which is understandable since it is very hard to hear Devin Dawson on the song where as Lauren Alaina is much more distinguished backing vocalist (helps she is the lone female).
