History YMMV / FloridaGeorgiaLine

* AuthorsSavingThrow: After the positive reception of "Dirt" and "Confession", it seems that the duo has decided to emphasize ballads more strongly on ''Dig Your Roots'' and ''Can't Say I Ain't Country''.

* SignatureSong: "Cruise (remix)" sold well and was the song that broke them out into stardom, but "Meant to Be" (featuring Music/BebeRexha) did better peak-wise at #2 and is more substantially known.

** The band is quite polarizing in the country music fan community (especially after the Nelly remix of "Cruise"), due to their hard rock influence and reliance on party jams, but they're one of the hottest selling country artists. Some have even considered them the Music/{{Nickelback}} of country (and in fact, they're produced by former Nickelback producer Joey Moi).

* SnarkBait: Due to their status as being the faces of the maligned "bro-country" movement, they tend to be the butt of jokes involving modern country and their attachment to beer, girls in bikinis, and trucks.

** "Baby, you a song, you make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise…"
** "Get yo SHINE oooon!"
** "That's how we do it 'round here!"

* MemeticMutation / TheCatchPhraseCatchesOn: After a journalist coined the term "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bro-country bro-country]]" in August 2013 as a descriptor of FGL's music, the term caught on with music journalists and fans alike as a catchall term for the trend in TheNewTens of party-themed pop-country.

* WinBackTheCrowd: Apparently the derision for being the {{Trope Maker}}s and (along with Music/LukeBryan) the {{Trope Codifier}}s of "bro-country" has resonated with FGL, as their second album is led off by "Dirt", which is noticeably more substantial than nearly anything on their first album.

* BrokenBase: Many fans of the band haven't been handling the Nelly remix of "Cruise" very well.
** "Sun Daze" is also getting slammed even by apologists, due to its lyrical references to getting laid and stoned, and the obvious "pink umbrella" double-entendre.

* GrowingTheBeard: "Dirt" suggests that FGL is making an attempt to create at least ''some'' material that isn't heavy on the "bro" stereotypes for which they were the TropeMakers, and actually has some substance to it.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Florida Georgia Line is really 3OH3!. Note the similarities.

** "That's how we do it 'round here!"

** "Cruise" in particular deserves special mention. Even before the remix, it was pretty polarizing for its rap influences, but this didn't stop it from hitting #1 on the country charts and selling over 2 million copies. After the Nelly remix, the song and the duo themselves became even more polarizing, with some deriding the band for "selling out." Despite this, the remix helped the song sell even more and reached the #4 on the Hot 100. In the end, "Cruise" has sold over 6 million copies, making it one of the best selling country songs of all time.

** Heck, the duo themselves. "Cruise" already had a strong rap influence, and the band seems to trade mainly in party jams that many consider already way overdone on radio.
