The Texas native revealed he\u2019s hard at work on his next project and is ready to show fans a new, \u201cspicier,\u201d side to him.<\/p>\n<p>With his previous work, fans have seen Johnson tackle themes of love, relationships, life in Texas, and so much more. And while he doesn\u2019t want to stray too far from the kind of music that both he and fans yearn for, he\u2019s also been feeding off the pressure to take his next project to the next level, leaving him inspired to push boundaries with slightly steamier tracks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to go off the beaten path,\u201d he told media, according to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.everythingnash.com\/cody-johnson-hints-at-spicier-new-album-after-leather-deluxe\/\">Everything Nash<\/a>. \u201cBut I do want to do something just a little bit spicier. You\u2019ve got to follow up. You hit a home run. Next time you come up to the plate, people are kind of expecting a homerun. And I feel that pressure. It\u2019s a good pressure. That kind of pressure is a privilege to know that I\u2019m in a position where I can really go hit it out of the park again.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Cody Johnson; Photo Courtesy of Cody Johnson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>He confirmed that he is \u201cdefinitely\u201d working on recording new music. In fact, Johnson revealed that his creative wheels were starting to turn even before <em>Leather Deluxe<\/em>\u00a0had been released to the world yet. Diving straight into his next project gives the country star plenty of time to figure out his next direction without feeling rushed by a strict deadline.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like to stay ahead of things. I cannot stand when things are chaotic and rushed,\u201d he admitted. \u201cI hate putting a date on something and then having to do it up to the date. I like organization and structure at work. Sometimes you can\u2019t have that. It\u2019s live music, it\u2019s a music business. You gotta roll with the punches, and sometimes stuff happens like.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DMd8YEnAju4\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:540px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\"\/>\n<p>It\u2019s clear that Cody Johnson is taking his time to make sure that every decision, from artwork down to the theme, is being carefully considered before sharing too much information with his fans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would say I\u2019ve got a little bit of work for the rest of the year to get done with this record.
