Artist: Pryor & Lee Single: "Y'allsome" Label: Black River Entertainment Impact Date: June 29th, 2020
Audio coming soon.This will be the debut single for new duo, Pryor & Lee. Pryor Baird and Kaleb Lee both were contestants on The Voice in 2018 and decided to form a duo in 2019. The signed with Black River Entertainment in January of 2020. I got a chance to hear this and I think it sounds like a run-of-the-mill uptempo tune. The title drives me crazy lol.

Pryor Baird was a great singer on The Voice. Another good one Blake had that didn’t win. Blake to me always picks the best singers on that show.

Y’allsome in a sentence: Y’allsome haters for judging a song before even hearing it.

After listening to the song, there was no reason to stylize the title the way that they did lmao "Y'all Some" would have been perfect because that phrase is repeated so much in the chorus, lol.
That said, I like this fine musically. I think it's a little edgier than your average modern country uptempo, I appreciate that it has a bit of a country-rock vibe going on, and I think the melody is actually pretty solid. I thought it fit their vocals very well. It's not a groundbreaking 'get under your skin' tune but for me it was a pleasant and rather enjoyable listen.

The title is so damn...well, it exists. Ugh.
I am not a fan of the second verse (I heard them say "cut-off jeans" *sigh*), but the production was pretty great and I like their voices well enough.

Good God this is horrendous. Sounds like a leftover from Jerrod Niemann's High Noon album sessions. Hard fucking pass.

Big meh. This isn’t offensive or anything but it’s just so bland and honestly forgettable. I’ll be surprised if this does anything for them.

I’m a fan of each of them individually and think they sound good together, so I was probably predisposed to liking this, but I also can’t deny that it sounds like a Blake Shelton B side from 2013. I doubt this does much for them, but hopefully they have some better stuff up their sleeve.

21 adds the first two weeks since impacting and Black River sent this song to radio over month ago...
This one won’t chart. I’m not sure what the label was thinking here. The song isn’t good and the title is a non-starter. I guarantee programmers said no to adding this to their logs based purely off how ridiculous the title is.

It debuted at #60 this week.  I know it isn't much and doesn't mean it's gonna be a hit or anything, but I did notice its audience numbers in the New & Active section a few weeks ago weren't half bad so I thought about saying something when I saw you post this that I wouldn't totally rule out the possibility, lol. |

I know, I was laughing when I saw it lol. It was a pretty low threshold to crack the chart in my defense haha (less than 450k). Just one add this week for 22 total after impacting three weeks ago. I'd be shocked if this became even a moderate hit. |
