"Meat & Candy aligns closely with [Sam] Hunt's Montevallo, particularly in its casual rap rhythms - evident not only in the beats that underpin the productions but also in Ramsey's delivery - but Old Dominion lack the beefy assurance of Hunt. Instead, this is a sharper, savvier variation of Rascal Flatts: crossover pop as suited for an office as it is for a make-out session. That's an endorsement, not a dismissal: it's hard to sound this light and easy".

"Their style of contemporary country-pop music, the kind that takes more cues from `80s pop-rock than anything else, but with the sound and style of guitar-oriented current country radio hits; think Keith Urban as one immediate touchpoint. Ramsey and Old Dominion traffic in pick-up songs more than anything else. Meaning songs built of pick-up lines, not songs involving pick-up trucks, though there are some of those".
