I am really surprised with radio's desire to catapult this kid. Any video of him you've ever seen shows how woefully unprepared he is for this to all be happening so fast. It's the fastest I've ever, ever seen a country artist become so successful.

It's the fastest I've ever, ever seen a country artist become so successful. I guess I haven't seen enough or any videos of him really. 🤔 Also I definitely agree it's the fastest trajectory into superstardom we've seen. The next closest example in country music history would easily be Gretchen Wilson, but ofc. we saw she only was able to maintain it for about 2 years and then fell off hard. I doubt that happens with Bailey Zimmerman though. |

I doubt that happens with Bailey Zimmerman though. Given that he’s a male artist and isn’t John Rich’s version of what a female artist should be (Gretchen was too talented to be pigeonholed as what she became but I digress), Bailey Zimmerman can have a sustained career though it’ll remain to be seen if he can move past a bright beginning to sustained stardom. But at least he’s not a one hit wonder. |

Could this debut in the top 40 on BB before Monday’s impact date?

I think most stations are sticking to Rock And A Hard Place for a while. This. They're releasing this new single rather early, so a lot of stations are probably going to hold off since "Rock and a Hard Place" is still going strong. |

I really like this one. He continues to become a breakout success, and the biggest new country artist in years. I imagine this will end up as a multi-week #1.

This is his best single yet. You can really hear the emotion in his voice, makes the song feel authentic. There’s some good songs on the album too, so he seems setup for sustained success. Only thing I’ll comment is eventually at some point he’ll need to put out a strong upbeat single or I could see people growing tired of all the mid tempo heartbreak type songs.

I sorta agree with this. I’ve feel that for a tempo change, he really needs to release “Where It Ends” as the next single |

This is my fav single from him so far. I love the melody, and the vocal sounds better than his previous singles. I was disappointed that the album did not include Waiting, but as long as this is followed up by You Don't Want That Smoke, I would take it.

This is almost top 20 already on Billboard despite “Rock And A Hard Place” still receiving top 5 airplay. Just a really impressive start to Bailey’s career. This should be another easy #1.

Warner seems to be holding this one back behind "Drinkaby". I hope that doesn't end up impacting this one's weeks at the top

I really can’t stand this song. I tell Alexa to play country music while I work, and lately I’ve been skipping over this whenever it comes on.

Kind of hope "Fadeaway" is the next single. I've fallen in love with that one. I'm hoping they don't move onto a new era though. For some weird reason, even though the album is really young, I feel like a lot of these newer artists aren't opting for very long album eras with multiple singles and instead are opting for new material more frequently, I guess to keep their audience engaged.

I feel like we need something upbeat from him as the next single. Then again I’d love for the next single to be “Warzone” or “You Don’t Want That Smoke” too.

He was recently posting about being in the studio, so I'd give it like a 50/50 tossup between brand new single next or something else from the current album, lol. |

I like Bailey. "Rock And A Hard Place" is a fantastic song and his vocal delivery was great. This song is pretty cringey to me. "This don't even feel like life" line is just bad. Feels like bad emo music. I'm looking forward to the new cycle for him though, I would love to hear him get away from the sad boy/wallen style a little and lean more into his own thing
