"After three number ones from the debut album I don't know how you follow that up. Knowing what we have coming on the next album in 2016, I kind of wanted to end [this cycle]� with something fun. [With] 'Chillin' It,' people didn't care who was singing it, they just said, 'I want to turn this up, who is this?' And I got my name out there. So I'm ending with something [else] fun, 'Let Me See Ya Girl.'"

"It's not breaking ground, lyrically," he smiles. "It's just wanting to get to know a girl outside a club. It's not a 'Ain't Worth the Whiskey' or 'Dozen Roses and a Six-Pack' that hits you here [in the heart], it just makes you dance and move and have fun, and you need those songs in your set to make sure that everyone gets their money's worth. 'Let Me See Ya Girl' is one of the biggest live songs I have in my set, that's why we decided to make it a single, and it's doing well."

But he's just kicked off a new tour, which is why he wanted a new EP out. "We're ending [the album cycle] with ['Let Me See Ya Girl'], we're kind of going into the holiday season, and we've released this EP to kind of build this tour around. We're playing these songs in clubs for the first time. And early in 2016, we're going to have a brand new single, something I'm more proud of than I've ever done in my career. As soon as this album's done, I've already got stuff for my next album that's gonna set me apart and help people to see that I'm growing as an artist and as a songwriter."
