Kane Brown, 2 Pair | Song Review 🎵

Kane Brown doesn’t just buy one pair: he needs two pairs of everything on his brief but entertaining single, “2 Pair.” 

“Hey, I need some for work, I need some for church (Hey) / I need some for getting down dirty in the dirt.” Fair enough! If you need something, Kane Brown, then you should buy it.  Sometimes,  Brown overdoes it in “2 Pair”.  Yes, there is a need, particularly when “I wear ‘em out till there’s holes on the outsole,” but at other times, the country music standout likes it and wants to flex: “Damn, I probably don’t need no more / But the second I walk through the door…” More on that in a moment.  Like many popular songs, including country, there are no shortages of writers.  Brown co-wrote “2 Pair” with Andrew Haas, Gabe Foust, Ian Franzino, Jacob Hackworth, and Jaxson Free. Jordan Schmidt produced it.

As the title suggests, Kane Brown is doubling up! In the chorus, he splurges:

“Give mе two pairs of Luccheses

All-white shirt and somе bootcut jeans

I’ll go all night, stomping to the beat

I just got a check, blew it all on my feet like

Oh, ooh

Ain’t shit you can tell me, I feel like Nelly

Give me two pairs of Luccheses

All-white shirt and some bootcut jeans, yeah.”

Not only do rappers drop a bag, but so do country singers. Brown seems to have a fit that he digs: Lucchese boots, white shirt, and bootcut jeans. And, of course, he’s looking damn good, so much show that “Lil’ shorty came with a man, but she still starin’, damn.” Woo! There is nothing brand-new or transcendent about “2 Pair”, but Brown sings well, the lyrics are entertaining, and the sound is contemporary country through and through. The music during the chorus is quite robust – those mammoth-sounding drums.  Yee haw, cowboys and cowgirls!
