Background and content
The title comes from a napkin Hardy found after a show with the word "quit!" on it in Nashville, Tennessee. He used that discouragement as fuel, then coming into his own as an artist. In a speech at the Academy of Country Music, he said:
Thank you for inspiring me to be great, I guess sometimes holding a grudge is a good thing.[3]
On the same day of the song release, Hardy announced Quit!! tour to promote the song. Tickets for the tour went on sale on January 16.[4]
The song expresses Hardy's own career.[5] He recalls his first taste of success with Morgan Wallen and Florida Georgia Line's "Up Down", which has cemented his current status as a hitmaker in a wide range of genres.[6][7]
Critical reception
"Quit!!" received mixed reviews.[8] Entertainment Focus writer James Daykin described that the song "is pure Eminem with its early 00s rapping and aggressive cadence".[9] Madeleine O’Connell of Country Now felt that it "continue to push the boundaries on his genre-less catalog".[10]
