Blake Shelton may have chosen the amusing title “Pure BS” for his fourth album, but it’s the “pure” part of the name that most aptly describes the music.
Traditional-minded but produced with a contemporary edge, “Pure BS” perfectly showcases Shelton as a powerful and expressive vocalist while also showing off his impressive songwriting skills on three of the tracks.
To get that “pure” sound, Shelton pushed himself harder than ever before as a singer and as a writer and stepped out of his comfort zone in the studio to work with some first rate producers who pushed him even more. The end result, Shelton believes, is his best album to date, and one that has already spawned the hit single “Don’t Make Me.”
In addition to his longtime collaborator, Bobby Braddock, Shelton worked with producers Brent Rowan and Paul Worley on his new CD, an experience that proved to be fruitful. In the end, Braddock and Rowan each produced four of the album’s tracks, and Worley helmed three. But the finished CD reveals that all three producers shared the same vision.
That vision sprang from his last album, “Blake Shelton’s Barn & Grill,” which featured Shelton’s hit remake of Conway Twitty’s “Goodbye Time.” When that song became a single, the artist says people frequently told him “I didn’t know you could sing like that.” Those comments inspired him to “showcase what I can do vocally a little more” on “Pure BS.”
