Critical reception

[edit | edit source]

Florian Buechting of Flyctory.com gave the album a rating of 3.5 out of 5 and said "Country Stuff is rather average. The title track is great, but there are too many weaker songs on this EP as well. The lyrics are typically not too bad – but this unique cheeky, ironic touch in Walker Hayes’ tracks feels to be faded. Bad luck, I loved it."[5] Nicole Piering of Country Swag gave the EP a generally positive review, writing: "As a singer-rapper, Walker Hayes fills a certain niche with undeniably catchy songs like "Country Stuff" and "Fancy Like." However, he truly shines on deeper material, as evidenced on tracks like "Briefcase" and "Make You Cry." The Country Stuff EP allows Hayes to flex both sides of his personality, and there's something for everyone here".[6]
