COUNTRY GRAMMER

Everything you need to know about Florida Georgia Line can be found in the split-screen video for second single “Round Here.” On the left, you’ve got Brian, the Florida party-boy side, walking the boardwalk before taking a girl underneath, while on the right you’ve got Tyler, the Georgia working-boy side, pulling parallel moves at the hardware store and amid haphazardly arranged bails of hay. A decade and a half ago, these lifestyles would have seemed incompatible, but with drum machine beats, hip-hop slang, and a dramatic wipe about two-thirds of the way through that video, FGL have not only brought them together but brought them to the top of the charts as well. To paraphrase the purposely misspelled title of one of the duo’s club-friendlier tracks, it’z just what they do.
