My First Country?????? -- Jelly Roll - Son Of A Sinner

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Jelly Roll was in a gang & spent 5 years in prison. Got out at 23 & started doing hip hop & rap stuff. Now he has been welcomed by the country community. He says he knows who his audience is & who he is writing for. He is trying to reach people struggling like he did. He just played a concert a week ago, here in the jail in Flint, Michigan for the inmates. That being said, you have not been educated on country if you think it is all sad. There are patriotic inspirational songs like Toby Keith's 'Courtesy of the red, white & blue'. There are party songs by every country artist, like Brad Paisley's 'I'm still a guy' or 'I'm gonna miss her' (FYI, he isn't) Sam Hunt & 'Body like a backroad' is awesome, Walker Hayes has fun songs like 'Fancy like' & 'AA'. Luke Combs 'When it rains it pours' (hilarious video), Kenny Chesney, 'When the sun goes down', Luke Bryan 'One margarita', 'Country girl shake it for me', 'Play it again', 'But I got a beer in my hand' Blake Shelton's 'Boy's round here' & I could go on & on with thousands of artists & fun songs. Your closed mind will make you miss a lot in life. To make a broad statement to not like country music is silly. They country styles are like apples & oranges & the variety within the genre is amazing. Some are pure traditional stuff like you hate, then there is some that has a hip hop edge, or a rap edge etc. Country music has evolved & so should you. You're awfully young to be so closed minded. You're only cheating yourself.

I came off closed minded to you? Im also 42 girl I came into this knowing nothing about country music and also NOT liking it, keep that in mind

[@antonioespinoza765]

@@tattooedandreviewed shit man well i hope you at least listen and like the happy songs haha🤘 i always use to think country was all sad until i got deeper innit

[@richarddutton1981]

so you dont like Jelly?

[@debbiealvey3537]

Dude! You are waaay off on country music! There’s sad, funny, inspirational etc. You should give it a shot. 😊

[@MICHAELANDERSON-pc6gg]

Every song young man tells a story good, bad, and indifferent. Songs like that reflect any person's life as they grew up and what they have experienced. That is how songs are made!

[@bobbiewilliams8587]

The reason country music is always so sad is because most country songwriters use it as a form of therapy to get out their sadness of their life. There’s awful lot of country that also is just good and fun. Have you ever heard of red Solo cup that was just one example.

[@kimberlyosborne1977]

Jelly is amazing and has an amazing life story. His music speaks to so many.

[@lesliebates22]

I love your reactions and your art too. You do absolutely amazing work. I think you would really love some stuff by Upchurch. He has some stuff with Adam Calhoun, Jelly Roll and Tom MacDonald. Him and Adam HOOLIGAN. Then his song POND CREEK ROAD (not country). Upchurch and Jelly Roll VOWS. Then his songs PEOPLES CHAMP and HOLLER BOYS cause you'll like them. I don't pumpkin spice or cowboy hats either. Have a great one😀

[@jonkeau5155]

One of the most dangerous lies people believe in life is that they are alone, it’s songs like this that are written to show you that not only are you not alone, but someone else went through the things that you’ve been through and made it out the other side. Jelly Roll wrote this album as a praise and worship album for sinners. Sometimes people need to figure out where they are before they can figure out where they need to go.

[@GodSpeedRalphy2023]

I got these CATS To keep me company , it's true while I'm lonely. LoL

[@TheHandsOfSteel]

they write these songs cuz its all from the heart most people write about stuff theyre battling or whatever

[@ItsRefexYT]

2:09 its more of a song on recovery and change and the ups and downs on that path of change its still a little sad tho. But like you said you're not into country music and easy to be misinterpreted nowadays, God bless

[@gailboose6109]

you should try Jelly Rolls Dead man walking. It was his first #1 rock song. Its amazing.

[@mjking9019]

If you've only heard sad country songs, you haven't heard enough country music. Shania Twain, Brooks & Dunn, Big & Rich, Toby Keith, to name a few who have some very fun, upbeat songs.

[@catedid]

I'm from Nashville and have always hated country music too. Bluegrass makes me absolutely nauseous. I'll always be a head-banger till the day I die. Like you, I do have respect for Jelly Roll as a person and his videos with his family just living life are fun to watch.

[@gorgdemorg9381]

Check out "this is how we roll" from Florida Georgia line. Modern country that is not sad at all 😅

[@liamowen3752]

Your not seeing this song for what it is m8..Why would you be so insensitive instantly?..Everyone is entitled to their opinions..But how could you react to a beautiful song like this the way you did? It takes immense courage and fkin balls to put your self out there like he did in this song...Its why jelly is the huge success he is!..In a world where social media, filters and fake is the new normal...Amazing artists like this show us theres still actual substance and honesty left in this world..

[@rachelegilmore6734]

You should do "Dead Man Walking" by Jelly Roll and "even angels cry" and "unlive"

[@scotttrueblood4126]

listen to some of the late Toby Keith songs most of his was up beat and listen to as good as i once was

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

I appreciate your reactions to Jelly Roll's (Son of a Sinner)❤❤❤

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

Everyone has feelings and sometime we need to get in touch with what we are feeling!❤❤❤❤

[@Axe_Slinger]

The OOOOLLDDD Joke is - "If you play a Country Song backwards you get your Wife, your Truck, and your Dog back! 😂 PS - Country (& Western) Music was where Blues Music was derived from so that's why Country and Blues are usuallyso sad. Blues uses the same 12 bar pattern, usually with a "turn around" and uses the same basic Chird Progression Pattern (for any fellow Musicians the I(1), IV(4), and V(5) Chords)

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

Fantastic song Jelly Roll 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@LindaLittle-m7j]

You need to listen to The Charlie Daniels band sing " The Devil went down to Georgia" it's country buti funny too snd 🔥🔥❤ Listen to it please you will like it!❤❤😅

[@wiley16350]

Country music is more than sad songs, more than twang, and a lot more than the stereotypical view of it. I'll give you some recommendations to expand your horizons. Maybe you've heard of these songs, maybe you haven't. The Legend of Wooley Swamp by Charlie Daniels Band The Devil Went Down to Georgia by the Charlie Daniels Band Mountain Music by Alabama If You're Gonna Play In Texas (You Gotta Have a Fiddle in the Band) by Alabama Rocky Mountain Music by Eddie Rabbitt I Love A Rainy Night by Eddie Rabbitt Black Rose by Waylon Jennings I Ain't Living Long Like This by Waylon Jennings Never Could Toe the Mark by Waylon Jennings Rose In Paradise by Waylon Jennings Fishin' In The Dark by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Long Hard Road by The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Third Rock From the Sun by Joe Diffie It's All In Your Head by Diamond Rio What Was I Thinkin' by Dierks Bentley I guess that's good for now.

[@desireoverpain]

I don't know if it's good for a reaction due to the length, but I would highly recommend checking out jelly's first viral video on youtube " jelly roll 10 minute freestyle". It was how i discovered him a decade ago as a gangster rapper fresh out of prison. I've gone back and listened to that video a couple times a year since i first found it.

Not all country music is sad. If that is what you think then you are the one who is missing out. Sorry you can't open your mind to new things.
