When I first heard  "Leave the Night on" by Sam Hunt my first thought was wow this guy has some talent here. And my oh my was I right about that statement. If your a fan of old school country music such as Alan Jackson, George Jones, Alabama, and Waylon Jennings then you probably won't like Sam Hunt's music to much. Even though Hunt's music is considered country there is a blend and mix of pop in his music which is really appealing to me. His first smash single "Leave the Night on" is a
perfect example of this where you can tell a clash between country and pop. It reached as high as #1 in the U.S.Hot Country charts in 2014. Sam Hunt: Leave The Night On

All through out Hunt's album though is what I like to call Pop Country which  I really like. Now don't get me wrong I love classic country like Brooks & Dunn, George Strait, and Tim McGraw but there is just something about this new country that I love. Throughout "Montevallo" you can really grasp some of these songs as your own. Songs such as "House Party", "Take your Time" and "Break up in a small town"  all have their differences but also have many similarities to go along with . With a blend of slow to medium slow to fast pace jumping songs this album has everything a new country fan would want to hear. One of the best songs on this album in my opinion has to be the song called "House Party" Sam Hunt: Take Your Time

"House Party" has to be one of the top 3 songs on the album and it is the one that you can really just get up and dance to every time you hear it. It brings life to the album that some people might say is full of slow depressing songs. Well I disagree because this song is currently at #38 in the U.S. Hot Country charts. Other songs on the album have made their way to the charts such as "Break up in a Small town" which is #30, "Ex to See" which is #37, "Make you Miss me" which is #32, "Speakers" which is #40, "Take your Time" which is #6 and "Raised on it" which is #49. This album just shows how country music has evolved and continues to evolve over time. Look out folks Sam Hunt is here to stay. Sam Hunt: House Party
