Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the lyrical genius of Thomas Rhett? Somehow, in just over 3 minutes, in his latest single ‘Sixteen’ released from his new album ‘Unforgettable’ that comes out later this year, he has the power to universally tug our nostalgic heartstrings, depositing us right back to our teenage years with both humour and sweetness, a song that everyone can relate to and feel like was personally written for them. It was promoted by his wife Lauren on Instagram as her favourite song from the new record and it’s not hard to see why. If the first three releases from his album are anything to go by, ‘Unforgettable’ is sure to ricochet Thomas Rhett’s career yet further. With a new baby due to be born any minute, the adorable character of the couple’s newly adopted daughter Willa Grey and this promising album, the second half of 2017 is bound to prove some beating for the Akins household.
