Thomas Rhett revealed that he will release his upcoming fourth studio album, Center Point Road, on May 31st. The album takes its name from the street in his Tennessee hometown that shaped much of his life experiences.
Rhett has released the album’s uptempo lead single, “Look What God Gave Her.” which we love at Country Hits. Thomas said, “I think I played this song 2,000 times in a month after we first wrote it,” says Thomas Rhett. “It makes me want to dance. It makes me want to move. And to me, the song really is a celebration of how awesome my wife is. I know I’ve done that in the past, but I’ve never really done it in an uptempo way.”

Jordan Davis scored the second No. 1 single of his career as “Take It From Me” topped the Mediabase chart this week.
It follows Jordan’s debut single, “Singles You Up,” which reached Number One last year
“Take It From Me” has extra-special significance for Jordan—it’s a song he co-penned with his brother Jacob Davis and Jason Gantt.
“Jacob and I had a dream of having a No. 1 song together when we moved to Nashville and we both cannot thank everyone enough for their support of this tune,” says Jordan. “From country radio to the fans, thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
Davis is currently on the road with Old Dominion as part of their Make It Sweet Tour.
