Английская Википедия:All American (Nick Carter album)
All American is the third solo album released in 2015 by Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter. The album was released on November 25, 2015, on his own record label, Kaotic, Inc. This is his first solo album since I'm Taking Off, which was released four years earlier.
Background
In January 2015, Carter let fans know he was working on another solo album that would be titled All American.[1] On September 22, 2015, he released the lead single from the album, "I Will Wait" on Vevo, which he said was inspired by Ed Sheeran's songwriting.[2][3] Carter also has a track featuring Canadian singer Avril Lavigne, titled "Get Over Me".[4] All American was released on November 25, 2015, a day after the Dancing with the Stars finale, where he was one of the four finalists.[5]
Musical style
The musical style of the album combines pop, rock and pop punk, and features some rock music instruments such as drum and rock guitar. The song "Cherry Pie" has the throwback type feel like that of Mark Ronson. Some songs have a guitar sound of pop punk music, such as "19 in 99", "Tijuana", "All American" and "Left for Dead". The songs "Get Over Me", "California", "Second Wind", "Sweet" and "In Over My Head" have more of a dance-pop and teen pop sound. "I Will Wait" is an emotional ballad inspired by Ed Sheeran, with a clear acoustic guitar sound. Шаблон:Quote

"I Will Wait" is the first single of the album, released on September 12, 2015, on iTunes, and September 22 on Vevo. The song climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Trending 140 Chart.[3] On September 24, Carter performed the song on the finale of Dancing with the Stars.
