Put It On Ice - Commentary

Thomas Rhett got back to his roots a little bit, and back to a more simplistic way of living

And alot of that inspired "Country Again (Side A)" his new album

We're playing every song and talking to Thomas about all the songs on this album

And the next one I know people are gonna love, it is a collaboration with HARDY

And I feel like it's a tongue twister in the chorus

But Thomas talk to me about "Put It On Ice" featuring HARDY

"Put It On Ice" was one of those songs that

We started around 2 o'clock in the morning on the road

It was one of those times where you probably should go to bed

But you're still kinda on adrenaline from the show

And we just started singing whatever over any track that Matt Drag had brought up

And "Put It On Ice" was one of those titles that I'd had in my phone for a long time

And had no idea what it meant

So we just started just writing verse

I think we wrote 20 or 30 verses for that song

And then came up with a chorus, and when we finished it just felt like such a party

And the song morphed several times before you actually hear what actually made it on the record

Thanks to Jessie Fraser and Dan for kinda helping me reign that song in, and

HARDY and I have just talked about doing something on my record for a long time, and

I got to do something on his "Hixtape" record that he put out last year, and

It's fun when you get to flip flop those scenarios where they get to sing on your record, and uh

It's just one of those songs that when we finished I was like

"I wanna go play this live like tomorrow"

And so HARDY got on there and sang his vocal and it turned out really cool

And how cool would it be if you go check out Thomas Rhett

On one of his rescheduled Center Point Road Tour dates and HARDY comes out

And they sing this one together live

I have a feeling the place would just light up

It's called "Put It On Ice" Thomas Rhett featuring HARDY off "Country Again (Side A)"
