				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Kellie Pickler's" href="http://www.keepinitcountryblog.com/?s=kellie+pickler&amp;x=0&amp;y=0">Kellie Pickler</a>&#8216;s third album, <em>100 Proof</em>, made it&#8217;s debut today on Billboard&#8217;s Top Country Albums chart at No. 2 and debuted at No. 7 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart, according to Nielsen SoundScan.</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #ffffff;">“I&#8217;m so proud of this album,” shares Pickler. “I want to thank the fans so much for buying it and supporting country music. I know these are hard times economically and the fact that people spend their hard earned money on 100 Proof is humbling.”</span></p></blockquote>
<p><em>100 Proof</em> has critics touting praise for Pickler with Entertainment Weekly calling 100 Proof Kellie’s “meatiest, most adventurous output yet.” The Miami Herald said “a major label won’t release a more authentic or better country album in 2012 than Pickler’s surprisingly terrific 100 Proof.” The Associated Press calls 100 Proof “hardcore country” and describes the song, “Stop Cheatin’ On Me,” as being “drenched in old-fashioned heartbreak.”</p>
<p>Parade shares that Pickler is “bearing her Southern soul” on 100 Proof and The New York Daily News says that “100 Proof has a far greater sense of place, with steel guitars, fiddles and banjos that don’t just sound like tokens but rather integral parts of the song. The opening cut, ‘Where’s Tammy Wynette,’ earns its invocation of the icon with a feisty tune and a wide vocal arc.”</p>
