...but the album in question end up not committing to it and playing safe?

I don't know if Mason Ramsey would be considered an act who is playing it safe, but his most recent material is absolutely nothing like what is on his last EP. Go here (https://www.youtube.com/@masonramsey/videos) for all of his released material.

God bless you and him always!!!
