After last year's compilation "Favorites," Billy Yates has returned with his 6th studio album "That's Why I Run."  With all but the debut album self-released, he has carved out quite a nice niche for himself.  With that in mind, does the album stand-up to his past releases?

Here's a special song from Eric Durrance.  It's from his debut abum on Wind-Up Records. 

After scoring 4 consecutive #1's, Rodney Atkins' last single "Invisibly Shaken" tanked at radio.  Rather than return to radio with a ballad, Rodney instead returns with this track, a song that unsurprisingly sounds closer to those previous big hits.  Will it bring him another hit?

Here's the first single from Rodney Atkins' third album.

With its debut on the 42nd CMA Awards telecast last night, Jason Aldean couldn't have picked a better spotlight for "She's Country." Will that major exposure help this song fuel interest in Aldean's upcoming third album? Does the song stack-up well against other current hits?

Here's the latest single from Mark Wills.  It's from his upcoming album "Familiar Stranger."

With a new label partner in Midas/The Valory Music Co., Emerson Drive has returned to the charts with a romantic new track.  While the imagery is often used, does the vocal and melody rise above the oft-used lyrics?

Mark Wills released five albums during a successful run with Mercury Records Nashville.  For his sixth album, he's teamed up with Tenacity Records to release "Familiar Stranger," A solid collection of songs that will please his fans but will it gain him any new listeners?

It's been about five months since her last single was on the charts yet due to recurrent airplay, Martina has had the luxury to work on her upcoming album without worrying about a single.   Just released to radio, "Ride" certainly represents a change of pace with radio.  Is it enough to get her back on top of the charts?
