While talking to Billboard, McCreery said, “I think it's cool. I think it will be interesting to see Keith Urban out there in the middle of Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey. It will be interesting to see how he handles that.”
Scotty then went on to talk about how he copes with being an American Idol winner, “I embrace it. I think as an artist, it's important for me to grow and move on from that, to get focused on Nashville, and the industry, but I would never shy away from where I came from or how I got here.”
