'This was sort of a surprise. This was a career shift, and a big transition for me -- going from being in a duo.'
-- already firing on all cylinders with his"5 Foot 9" single catapulting to No. 1 on country radio -- the singer is, in a way, hoping to reintroduce himself to his fans.
And, when fans hear his 18-track collection, they'll get a sense of who he is, where he comes from and what's shaped him into the man he is today. While he had a star-studded list of collaborators on this new album -- including Keith Urban, Old Dominion, Thomas Rhett, Bebe Rexha and Russell Dickerson, to name a few -- Hubbard wanted fans to know that the point of views expressed in his tracks are not just of him, but also by him, as he co-wrote all 18 tracks.
He continued,"And once I accepted that and kind of acknowledged, 'All right, I'm gonna do this. I'm going to make an album and pursue the solo artist thing and give it all I got,' it was really fun to do, to kind of look at all the songs I had written over the last year. And then, also, kind of shift and transition my headspace when I was writing."
He wasn't afraid to tackle life-altering events, including the unexpected death of his father, Roy, in 2007 following what Hubbard has previously described as a"freak" helicopter crash when he was only a sophomore at Belmont University.

This has impacted many educators, but there are some in the state who refuse to back down. Dr. Marvin Dunn, one of the preeminent historians in Florida, is one of those saying, 'Bring it on.' Professor Marvin Dunn, author of, 'A History of Florida Through Black Eyes,' joins Joy Reid to discuss.
