Content

Brown co-produced one of his albums for the first time, which took time to adjust to, with Brown saying that "We went from a demo to a master recording to redoing everything. I was listening to the album and not liking the sounds. [...] We kept revamping things, working and finding the sound I've been looking for, adding in more rock and country sounds".^[4] The New York Times described Brown's duet with his wife Katelyn as a "folk-pop duet" and "Grand" as "post-Drake R&B", but that the album overall is "determinedly traditional", bookended odes to Brown's "rural Southern roots".^[5]

Commercial performance

Different Man debuted at number five on the US Billboard 200, including number two on the Top Country Albums chart with 46,000 album equivalent units.^[6] The album also reached number six in Canada and number 17 in Australia.^[7]^[8]
