He likens the style of “If You’re Not In It” to Hi Ho Silver Oh’s cover of Tom Petty’s “Time to Move On”. “Because of You” is a nod to Bruce Springsteen and Will Hoge, both staples in Todd’s evolution of music. “Made Me A Man”, a song that tells the most particular story ever written by Todd is a nod to George Strait and all the country love songs Todd grew up listening to.
