Critic Reviews

Taste of Country
'Clear as Day' shows growth without losing that loveable, Opie Taylor-like quality that endeared McCreery to millions of Americans during his 'American Idol' run.

Rolling Stone
His debut – a ho-hum jaunt through an America full of dog-eared Bibles, rugged pickup trucks and girls “hot as July, sweet as sunshine” – works overtime playing up his wide-eyed charm.

Sounds Like Nashville
The young crooner’s album is as wholesome as they come with tales of small town life and chasing girls.

Although Scotty’s traditional country style remains obvious in his voice, Clear As Day is more of a contemporary country album whose best moments show Scotty staking out his place on the country scene as a young man with a special knack for channeling the earnestness and sense of humor he used to navigate AI into his songs.

Pop Matters
You can throw money at a project in the hope of receiving short term notice, but once a singer like McCreery steps off the Idol reservation, giving him material this weak leaves him to swim with the sharks while having no real talent to defend himself with.

I was unimpressed by his debut single “I Love You This Big“, and I was prepared to dislike his debut album, Clear As Day. I am happy to report however, that Scotty has surprised me.

Season 10 “American Idol” winner Scotty McCreery is already showing signs of having a very healthy career at country radio.

In listening to American Idol winner Scotty McCreery’s debut album, it becomes all too clear that either McCreery is being carefully reared by the unabashedly commercial-minded execs of 19 Entertainment… or that he simply enjoys playing follow-the-leader.
