"Over 17 songs (five of which were released this summer on The Prequel EP), Combs doubles down on the Miller-chugging bona fides he's sculpted in the process of becoming country's most relatable everyman. His second LP reworks and revamps the now-quaint Nineties country styles of Brooks & Dunn (who appear on the clever drinking anthem "1, 2 Many") and Alan Jackson, and is littered not just with crushed beer cans but also resolute life lessons".

"At 60 minutes, the album runs through so many sturdy midtempo tunes about family, heartbreak, and love that the seams holding Combs' everyday persona together start to show -- all the variations on a theme can't help but reveal the calculation behind the image -- but taken on a song-by-song basis, What You See Is What You Get is a solid album, proudly made just the way they used to be back in the '90s".

"Combs is already at the point where he could probably release an album of Gilbert & Sullivan covers as his third record and have it stay on top for half a year. If he wielded that power to let us hear his beautiful rasp in even slightly starker relief next time, everyone would be the winner for it".
