Content

The EP was noted to have more of a country pop approach than Smith’s previous music.[5][6] Fellow country singers Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley of Florida Georgia Line, Morgan Wallen, Hardy, Steven Lee Olsen, Randy Houser and Brett Eldredge were among the songwriters. "Make 'Em Like You"[7] and "Rhinestone World"[8][9] were previously released as singles and became Smith’s 6th and 7th Canadian country #1s.[10] "Friends Don’t Let Friends Drink Alone" featured fellow Canadian country singers Dean Brody and MacKenzie Porter. The trio performed the song together often on the similarly named "Friends Don’t Let Friends Tour Alone Tour” which Smith and Brody co-headlined in late 2019.[11]
