Scott's debut single, "
Makin' This Boy Go Crazy", was released in June 2013. Billy Dukes of
Taste of Country gave the song three and a half stars out of five, writing that "the native Louisianan can really rumble when he reaches down to hit the low notes, but his performance won't leave female fans tingling like the greats." It charted for 10 weeks on the
Billboard Country Airplay chart, peaking at number 54 in April 2014. Markos Papadatos of
Digital Journal gave the song a B+ rating, writing that "the song has a
Jake Owen meets
Colt Ford vibe to it, especially since he displays his smooth baritone and rap vocals." Both songs are included on his
extended play, ''Makin' This Boy Go Crazy
(also as the self-titled Dylan Scott'' EP), which was released on February 11, 2014. The EP was produced by
Jim Ed Norman. Dylan Scott had his first number one record in the summer of 2016 with "
