Nate Smith and HARDY release eagerly awaited music video for ‘Nobody Likes Your Girlfriend’
ACM New Male Artist of the Year, Nate Smith, and the country rock sensation HARDY have recently collaborated on the release of their highly-anticipated single, “Nobody Likes Your Girlfriend.” Accompanying the release, the duo presented a dynamic music video featuring the renowned actor and comedian Kevin James, along with digital creators Sophia La Corte and Amanda Mertz. Directed by Spidey Smith, the video adds an extra layer of humor and star power to the track, which is anticipated to make a significant impact on the country music scene.
Expressing his admiration for HARDY, Smith reminisced about being captivated by HARDY’s distinctive style upon first listening to “Rednecker.” “I’ve been a fan of HARDY for a long time,” Smith stated. Not only is HARDY a highly sought-after songwriter in the country music industry, but he is also a significant star in his own right. Collaborating with him on this song has been an incredibly humbling experience. We both recognized from the outset that this song needed to be brought to life in this particular way—it resonates with so many individuals in a genuine manner. Additionally, it is undeniably one of the most infectious tunes I have ever been a part of. I am eagerly anticipating hearing audiences singing it at the top of their lungs everywhere I go this year.”
The music video further features the comedic genius Kevin James in a prominent role. Smith expressed his excitement about James’ participation, disclosing that he initially reached out to the comedian on a whim and was overjoyed when James agreed to be part of the project. “You wouldn’t believe how much we laughed on set,” Smith remarked. “Kevin James is not only a comedy legend but also an incredible human being. The generosity of individuals like HARDY, Kevin, and many others allows me to realize my wildest dreams. Dream big, everyone!”
Despite recently releasing his second album, “California Gold,” Smith shows no signs of slowing down. The album made its debut in the Top 15 on Billboard’s Country Album Chart and includes collaborations with artists such as Avril Lavigne and Alesso. His latest hit single, “Bulletproof,” marked his third consecutive multi-week No. 1 – a historic milestone in country music.
With new music on the horizon, Smith is preparing for an extensive tour schedule. His “Through The Smoke World Tour” will take him across Canada, Europe, and the United Kingdom, with appearances at the C2C Festival and a spot on Jason Aldean’s Full Throttle Tour this summer.
Simultaneously, HARDY continues his upward trajectory with his rock-influenced album “Quit!!,” which secured the top spot on the Billboard Hard Rock Albums chart. Renowned for his lively performances, HARDY is set to embark on the “JIM BOB World Tour,” headlining prestigious venues like Madison Square Garden and London’s O2 Academy Brixton.
