Sam Hunt “Take Your Time” has entered the Top 5 on the country charts, and believe it or not, it was one of the first songs the Georgia native wrote for his debut album, Montevallo.
“‘Take Your Time’ is a song I wrote two or three years ago, and it was sort of my first experience using a unique cadence in the verses and flowing from that spoken thing into a melody and then back again,” says Sam. “It probably represents a lot of the R&B influence that a lot of my music has, and I’ve always been really attracted to that rhythmic style of music. It’s a song that I’ve had for a while and been most antsy about putting out, because it is one of the first songs I wrote when I started working on my own project.”
“Take Your Time” recently surpassed 500,000 in track sales, making it Sam’s second consecutive RIAA-certified Gold single as an artist, following the now Platinum-selling No. 1 smash, “Leave the Night On.”
He’s currently headlining his Lipstick Graffiti Tour, and is set to make his next stop on the tour March 29th in Ames, Iowa.
