Double Wide by Uncle Kracker

Double Wide, the 2000 solo debut from Uncle Kracker, arrived on Lava/Atlantic on May 30, and it's the sound of Matthew Shafer stepping out from behind the turntables he'd been working in Kid Rock's Twisted Brown Trucker. He went solo in 1999, and this is where he shows what he had been sitting on: a laid-back mix of country rock and rap rock, porch-swing melodies riding on loose, head-nodding beats.
"Follow Me" is the easygoing charmer that carried him into the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, and "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" is the rowdier side of the same good-time streak. The album went top ten in the US, Germany and Austria, turned platinum in Canada and double platinum in America before 2001 was out, and Kracker admitted that its success left him feeling he'd been proved right all along.
