In February 2016, Brown released his fourth EP, Hurricane Stomp.[18] The EP peaked at No. 16 on iTunes-US and No. 8 in Canada.[19] The EP was featured on New Artist Spotlight and landed on Billboard's sales chart as one of the two top independent releases of the week.[20] Brown released another independent EP, I Call BS on That, on October 7, 2016.[21] The EP debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes Top Country Album chart and landed at No. 22 on the Billboard Album chart.
