Take Your Time

About a year ago I started hearing buzz about this singer who used to play football at UAB, named Sam Hunt. I started listening to some of his music and was impressed to say the least. I was able to see him perform live a couple of months later and was hooked.

This guy is amazing. There is no one like him in country music.



No, he's not your typical country music artist. Instead of Wranglers and cowboy hats, he wears skinny jeans and snap backs. He raps, he talks in his songs, he even has break dancers performing during his Lipstick Graffiti tour (which he is selling out all over the country.) But, he is talented. He makes good music and good music shouldn't be defined by a genre. 

Sam just released a video for his new single, "Take Your Time." If you have ever heard this song, I'm sure you had an idea in your head what the song meant. But, in typical Sam Hunt form, he went a completely different direction. It's surprisingly dark and intense.

It's powerful. It's thought provoking. Unfortunately, it's real life for some people. 

Take a couple of minutes and watch the new video and be sure to pick up Sam's album Montevallo.
