Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley Contemplates Reunion Amidst Solo Success

Brian Kelley, half of the former hit duo Florida Georgia Line, has hinted at the possibility of a reunion with his former bandmate Tyler Hubbard. However, Hubbard has expressed that he is not interested in revisiting their former glory. Despite the split, Kelley's second solo album, "Tennessee Truth," is a testament to his musical talent and his ability to thrive independently.

Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley is a man of many talents. The singer-songwriter has achieved massive success as part of the Grammy-nominated duo with Tyler Hubbard, and he has also embarked on a successful solo career. In a recent interview with The Associated Press, Kelley discussed his second solo album, "Tennessee Truth," and the possibility of reuniting with Hubbard.

Kelley is not ruling out the possibility of a reunion, but he is also not making any promises. "The old saying is, 'Tell God your plans, and he'll laugh,'" he said. "So, I have no idea. I really don't know what the future holds. I know that I'm really focused on what I'm doing now, and I'm really proud of ... the work that I put in."

The duo achieved massive success as a band since releasing their debut single "Cruise" in 2010, which went on to receive 11x platinum certification. They later made history for holding the longest reign on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart with their song "Meant to Be," spending 50 straight weeks at No. 1.

While Kelley left room for the possibility of a reunion with Hubbard, his former bandmate wasn't as optimistic about the two of them performing together again. "It was a cool season of life, and I wouldn't trade it for the world," Hubbard told People about his time as a member of Florida Georgia Line. "But I don't want it back. I'm in a way different place, and I wouldn't trade it."

Kelley released his first solo album, "Sunshine State of Mind," in 2020, when Florida Georgia Line was still together, calling it "a passion project" made "with a sonic respect to what we were, what we had done and what we had built." The band broke up two years later, with Hubbard releasing his own solo album in 2023.

Fans of the band have been speculating that some of the lyrics of Kelley's song, "Kiss My Boots," from his newest album are about Hubbard, and the breakdown of their working relationship. The song includes the lyrics, "Want the world to know that you did me wrong / I don't know how you act sweet, after how you did me / Here's a middle finger to you through a song."

While Kelley can understand why fans would think it's about Hubbard, he explained that the song "really means a lot of different things for me," and the others who worked on it. "I really put that song out because I wanted people to know that I'm a real human and I'm not just some face on social media or some somebody that's had some success," he said. "You know, I've been through hard times in my life."

Hubbard chose not to discuss Kelley's new song, thought to be negatively aimed at him."I'm happy for BK, and I hope he's happy and that he's doing his thing and I'm doing my thing," he told People in a statement. "I want only good things for him, and I wish him the best."
