Good morning 💪🏻 love yall, PLEASE watch the whole video. It explains EVERYTHING we’ve had to go through together & proves why these other players have been tryna waste our time.
Its a play or pay, you either play their games and pay up or pay the price which is either jail or prison, its your choice, you want to be controlled or be in control, when your in control they cant do crap except threaten which is against the supreme law of the land which is the constitution
Because Upchurch is Country Crazy like a Fox, when people don't think you have a clue and you just sit back and take in every word, action, and expression without letting them even think you have a clue, or as Us Country Folk call it being Sly like a Fox 🦊 or Crazy like a Fox as my Family always calls it😂😂😂
Maintain your integrity Ryan! I can’t imagine the pressure you feel to maintain your authenticity. I feel that pressure from my coworkers who try to dim my light. Your connection and words have helped me maintain who I am. Encourages me to know I’m not alone. Music and art has always been about that ability to evoke emotion and you are the standard of that Sir. 🦅Timeless.
co workers most always try to steal happiness more than promote it. Often because of jealous intent. That's why I've migrated away from service industry to farming. No one wants to put in the work to steal that happiness. Too much hard work when they can get those meals and bills paid by falling in line to the ways of the false reality
Glad I finally got to come back and watch this till the end. You've always been the realest man. There will be more of us, we're just out here building the foundation now💯🤘
You are the definition of truth and loyalty! Your true fans will always stay with you. Supporting you and your amazing music! Your selflessness, inspiration, determination and love to your people is something that could never be matched. Many are pretenders and liars to get only what they want. And those people will "reap what they sowin". Thank you for always being you. We got you!! ❤
Good morning Mr. Upchurch my MAN ...the OLD SOUL ..the truth teller!!! The elders are SO PROUD OF YOU! GOOD ALWAYS WINS! Your resilience is noticed! WE SEE YOU ...HEAR YOU ...AND KNOW YOU ! Much love to you and yours always and forever❤
This is so damn true! Gate keepers use compromised individuals who do not know who they are. Thank you for telling it like it really is. I pray that the listeners become more savvy and discerning. It's been obvious that big, greedy labels dont care about the music (thats why they all sound the same). I found you before the Pioneer album and knowing the back story has been amazing. I cannot be more grateful for your honesty and transparency. This is bigger than music, its a revolution that is happening everywhere. Its the people, the listeners, the buyers that really have the power. They just dont know it yet. Much love to you and yours Ryan- we got tickets for Taylorville. Ive never liked rap until finding you. Its the story, the people and the truth. Its powerful.
Church a real one. One of the realest in my days I’m a day one old head and so thankful to be around during upchurch time. Thanks church not just for the music but the laughs and the knowledge brother. HBTN💯
And any of the hate, criticism or allegations they throw at this man… I value his dysfunction and crazy side above everything. How do you think music magic happens and legends are created? Not by walking the line and always being proper and responsible, I’ll tell you that. 😂 I might not agree with everything he’s ever said or done but he damn sure doesn’t censor anything and gives us nothing but authenticity throughout every part of this insane fucking decade + he’s had as a public figure. I value that above everything and I’m here for the ride regardless of the destination. Have been since literally day 1 and will be forever. It’s been a beautiful thing to witness and be a part of and I’m just glad to be here. 🙌 - OG creeker
Is Upchurch the "Donald Trump" of the music world? Call me crazy, but I'm seeing some wild similarities between the two. All the made up stories, false accusations, discrediting, ect. Pretty wild, man. The independent artist can only do so much. The listeners HAVE to do their part as well to collapse the "mainstream music" industry and all the "big money." The CREEKER tat is brutal🤘 P.S..... That ending though
@@Anninukichild I do all the singing and instrumental production myself, and man... it's hard. Especially since I'm trying to get that radio quality sound. There's 1 song that I've been slowly working on since 2019. And it's almost ready. My hope is for it to blow up a little, and make me just enough money to pay others to help me produce parts of my other songs.
@@DaltonLayne check out my music/channel. Not the best production..none at all actually but gotta start somewhere.. my Rock song Angel actually Is pretty decent we did all the instruments
You are fuggin awesome! I don’t listen to the radio anymore bc there’s no upchurch. CREEKER is FIRE! I’m not a musician but listening to you and how you DGAF about what ppl think about you has been inspiring me to NGAF. Someone else’s opinion of me ain’t my business. God almighty made me as I am, not gonna waste my time worrying what they think!! You are a BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED MAN, wish you and baby mama and that precious angel nothing but the best! CREEKERFORLIFE
That’s called covering your own ass!!! Anyone who says Church is paranoid…No shit, you would be too if your “people” were snakes. This man has worked his ass off to this day to build up his independence and prove it works. Keep doing you Ryan 🤘🏻
Much respect and love from western nc. You always stay ten toes down and real to what you truly know and believe. Glad you take the time to speak truth to the creekers
Ryan, you are a genuine artist and I stand all the way with you on this. I was wondering what happened with a few “independent” artists as of this past year whom appeared to sell out. I was really sad by that too. I had so much faith that these ‘independent’ artists. I really spent years watching, sharing, and buying music just to see them switch up and act brand new for a label. I knew these ‘artists’ were lyin their face off about you because you are a REAL mthfkr and those whom control things don’t like anyone who cannot be bought and stands on integrity of soul. I been here watching for years. You are a real one and those in charge hate that shit. You stay safe Ryan.frfr because it’s dangerous to be real and right when everyone else is just blindly following along with the bandwagoners who sold out
I feel truth. And that's why I've been watching and supporting you. Truth sets you free in many ways. Keep being exactly who you are brother you got my support always. Plus your music is real and relatable
There is definitely a dark side to the music industry most listeners don't know about. Lots of sellouts and signing with the devil. Keep doing you Church and stay a solo artist. Good to see you speak on this.
I've felt this since first time I heard your voice. The way you mix nature,spirit,your emotions of all sorts,your ego and every kick ass thing in-between. I wouldn't have wanted to go through the last five years without your music in my space. Thank you so very much for being yourself and consistently bringing new music to my ears! Please do not ever change.
Well I wasnt expecting that today! Church dropping some fire! Your the most dangerous man in the music industry bubba. They cant control, they cant buy you and the harder they push the bigger you get.
I believe these large labels know that with the technology we have literally at our fingertips and getting easier and easier to navigate through, they're always plotting to figure out how to stay viable and relevant in the musical world. And I will agree that they'd... especially if desperate enough... try ANYTHING to keep someone from... pretty much.... taking money away from them by doing it independently without a need from them at all! I just love good music... I love my fellow man... and I TRULY love supporting "small business". And until these giant recording labels are extinct...no matter how big an independent artist is... I'll consider to be part of the small business community! Hope all this makes sense & isn't taken in any way sideways from what I'm attempting to say. God bless y'all! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼👊🏼
Bro you being able to stand on that accomplishment and it being a legitimate statement of fact has got to be a WILD feeling! Standing up looking OUT (not down) across what you created and what you’ve achieved… you should be proud skin! You very well may be the only person to not only dabble, but dominate an entire lane of music that YOU created and not lose a single gram of your soul! Brother, Gods plans never fail. “Some people go for gold, then lose sight of their shine And the sparkle that once was, gets tarnished in mind They forget what they was after they fall off the track And their vision that was vivid gets lost in pitch black!” You’re already a legend bro but stick around a bit longer I think you have more work to do! HB/AL! 🤘🤘🤘🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Upchurch would be dead if his mom knew his catalogue was worth $150million & if she was on the will to inherit everything. Ryan is so lucky he got out of his family alive. How people care about money like that, I'll never understand. If you think money will make happy & solve all your problems, just only, if you had $10 million, you are sorely sorely mistaken. People are just so dumb & egotistical & materialistic. You have alot problems when you don't know God. This video needs to be copied & preserved for posterity. LEGENDARY VIDEO ALERT!!!
Church. . I'd take business lessons from you if you offered it. Your incredible, so smart and you see things before it happens... love it. Gives me chills. I love ya ! HOLLA GIRL FOR LIFE
Upchurch, you are making music history and documenting it! You truly are a fucking Pioneer!! Keep on spreading the truth!! The end of the video is so true! Keep on being a real one!!
church thanks for sharing ⛪️ it’s a blessing to know your true worth! And I ain’t talking money 💯 This is just part 1… im waiting for part 2 👀 I realized so much of what you’re saying long ago and became very observant. Now even more. A lot of us listeners go hard to support certain music because it connects us to our very own lives,being, memories, values and old past times in unexplained ways, yet not every artist has that ability. ❤ I may be burdens fan but I’m also CreekSquad. Pretty sure that’s not just a coincidence. 😎 🫡
I’m not a musician in your industry. But everything you said I can relate to from where I’m standing in life right now and what I love to do! Keep giving em hell! 🔥🏆
Ryan I have watched you before the music thing even started and thought you were funny as hell. Then the music just blended in there some how and I knew you was going to blow up and everybody was going to know you. Definitely cool knowing some of us been following you from the beginning. HB
I ain’t even gonna lie, it’s because of you being open with your way of thinking and feeling that I was able to get out of a negative mindset and start to turn my life around ❤
“Damn what are the odds of that”😂 the truth comes with the fishy little story of what they’re up to. Ty for being real! They’re not all about the fans and being a HB they’re all about the cha-ching. We see right through it. Keep doing you church! Love ya! If anyone has ever tried to unify anyone it’s you. Look what you’ve done the fans are all coming together to support the realest one which is you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯
Good Morning...Just getting started on video...but I LOVE it that you were always ahead of the curve and went independent & your words to music always makes me FEEL. Im 62 yrs old & my Granddaughter always asks why I listen to Holler Boys ALL the time, she said its about boys. And I say NO, its about loyalty & friendship and love... thats what it makes me feel. And btw, shes 10 & is a fan too, Flowers All Bloom is her fav. We want to go to your show next time you are with 3hr drive to Jax, FL 🎶 🎉I am 100% a loyal listener and YT sub. You are so wise Ryan. .and hey, TRUMP 2025!!!! We did it!
Real cannot be sold! When you hear a song that makes you turn your head and listen to it a million times because it is so relatable that is priceless and can’t be bought! That is why they mad and try to destroy you because they can’t duplicate what you are doing and how you live! 🤘🤠🤘
1:38 sue for liable slander defamation! Make em go broke WOW that's wild 2:09 WHAT?! 🤯 I didn't know it was THAT bad cuz i get ban& quit the platform for another but I ain't an artist trying to tour& reach my audience. But they attack you. They can't beat resilience like THAT!
It’s funny you mentioned the majority of the stuff you stated because I always wondered how much Record labels drop on fake plays and fake views on mainstream artist page just to get their views up. It’s gotta be hectic.
Bro. Its things like this that make you respectable as a person. Calling out and exposing the industry for what it truly is. Thats why i respect folks like you, Trae, Chris Webby, Vin Jay and so many others. Not afraid to speak your mind, and let it all out with your foot on they necks.
"My six is watched by every skin in Dixieland" you have always been the only one that truly speaks for people like me. That grew up in the middle of nowhere, didn't have a whole lot but what we did have we appreciated, many times raised by grandparents because the parents just couldn't commit, the outcast, the black sheep. The misunderstood. A bit of backwoods and hollers and a bit of hood and street. And to those we love, we would literally give our last breath to them if it would give them one more. I never heard my voice until I found you. And I truly thank you for that. They hate you because they've never had the balls big enough to be themselves no matter what like you have. And because you speak the truth, regardless of the consequences. They should tread carefully though. We protect the ones we love with everything in our souls. Hell, just imagine how far we go just to kill a deer, never mind if they took the person that unapologetically represented us. Whatever we can do to help, say the word Skin. Creeksquad for life. P.s. one of the main reasons they come for you like this, is because you're actually up against banks, not "music labels". They give loans, not checks....
Oooo, some songs I recommend. American Dream Outlaw Cheatum County Silver Circles Middle of the Night Dirty South Cowboy Steer Clear Ghost Rolling Stone Son of the South
fuck them labels brother, you’re music and videos and knowledge you have and bring to the table is like no other. i believe everything you say when you come on these videos and talk man, you’re the only truly and real arist artist there is left man
I'm so freaking glad you said this..when I say it people think I'm crazy...and it's refreshing to know I'm not the only one seeing the bullshit going on.
It's kind of suspect why any independent artist would be telling you you're wrong about exposing the industry, why the hell would they care? They're independent. 🤔. But too bad You were smart enough to figure it out. 🤘
Because most independent artists are secretly hoping, wishing, praying that a Record Label notices them and signs them. Even if they say that's not what they want..... MOST are lying. Most don't know how to turn down that type of money and fame. Sad but true. Church is one of the rare ones who doesn't want the Record Label behind his creativity. That's hard to find ever.
@@Caremmn Maybe b4 2014 but times have changed. I bet Beiber wishes he went the independent route now. He could have done it all on his own. It may take a bit longer but these days people get famous all on their own. And keep all the profits.
Upchurch is legit man. When I was in middle school, he put out cheatham county, heart of america, chicken Willie, bad mutha fucka, and it swept the nation. It felt like somebody representing us. Church used to do music videos and invite tons of people to come be in the video, I knew some of those people and it was so wild man. Church is a fucking legend. There will never be another dude representing places like Casey county, Kentucky. Dude put it on for the country. “Grass roots” can’t even describe this man.
All of these old ways of doing things in the media at large are dying fast. And it will hit these gatekeepers in music as well. Independent artists should be on those lists just as well today. Especially when you are making the sells. The YOUTH have to make the changes. They have to come together and find ways to make these legacy institutions obsolete.
Grateful YOU were there to show everyone HOW long ago and still sticking to your word to this day. By you being the one to make the trail seen while being on the trail, you are right that shit makes them mad as fuck. Necks too Red for mainstream BS cuz even going from rags to more rags continuation would occur even if a dollar wasn't made. Knowing that makes me proud to be a part of Creek Squad. Creeker Til Death, HG for Life
Jelly Rolls apparent over night success has really exposed the music industry. He wasn’t even top in this lane of music but as soon as he signed on that line he became the biggest name out there on everything from CMT to CSPAN to WWE. Working with all the big artists even Eminem. I wouldn’t surprised to see him playing the Super Bowl. It really shows what Upchurch has given up by staying independent. Upchurch has the most talent and the most loyal fans in this lane. It makes me wonder what Jelly had to give up for the opportunity. I mean he completely changed his music but personally it had to cost him something…
All the info is out there(what they have to do to get that kind of treatment and keep it that way) if he falls off, then u know he didn't want to play their game anymore
Good morning 💪🏻 love yall, PLEASE watch the whole video. It explains EVERYTHING we’ve had to go through together & proves why these other players have been tryna waste our time.
Good morning 🌄 we love you back! Much love and many prayers for you and your family 🙏❤️🙏

Crazy man, I was just thinking that same exact thing just yesterday.
I said this last week. The OPPs are at every level so it's not a suprise to see them doing this to people like trump and upchurch who say the truth.
They both embody the magician archetype , and the sacred clown archetype .❤❤❤
Ohhh it’s coming out !! Love ya church thank you ! You have kept your word to us so we always got you .

This creek don't run dry Bubba congratulations on all your success and more to come 100% independence ain't never changed.
That ending, though! 😂😂 Speaking nothing but facts! You should be so dang proud, Church! No one owns you in life and beyond. Love ya, man!
You are the GOAT. Thank you for inspiring us
Woke up for an early morning sermon from Church ⛪️ 🙌 Got me feeling like it's already Sunday 😅
Ryan I have watched you before the music thing even started and thought you were funny as hell. Then the music just blended in there some how and I knew you was going to blow up and everybody was going to know you. Definitely cool knowing some of us been following you from the beginning. HB
Thanks for always keeping it real and speaking the truth much love Bubba
I ain’t even gonna lie, it’s because of you being open with your way of thinking and feeling that I was able to get out of a negative mindset and start to turn my life around ❤
Brooo THE VIDEO I BEEN WAITING FOR! 🙏🏻HB🖤👊🏻🤘🏻
What’s done in the dark will be brought to the light
💯💯💯💯
Facts
Really wish you had some shows out west. We love your music out here too,hard for some to travel that far. We would if we could
Upchurch your a real one for giving us advice & telling us the what's b actually going down
I appreciate the transparency you keep with your fans. Truly the G.O.A.T. ❤
“Damn what are the odds of that”😂 the truth comes with the fishy little story of what they’re up to. Ty for being real! They’re not all about the fans and being a HB they’re all about the cha-ching. We see right through it. Keep doing you church! Love ya! If anyone has ever tried to unify anyone it’s you. Look what you’ve done the fans are all coming together to support the realest one which is you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💯
Hmmmmmmmmmm
Good Morning...Just getting started on video...but I LOVE it that you were always ahead of the curve and went independent & your words to music always makes me FEEL. Im 62 yrs old & my Granddaughter always asks why I listen to Holler Boys ALL the time, she said its about boys. And I say NO, its about loyalty & friendship and love... thats what it makes me feel. And btw, shes 10 & is a fan too, Flowers All Bloom is her fav. We want to go to your show next time you are with 3hr drive to Jax, FL 🎶 🎉I am 100% a loyal listener and YT sub. You are so wise Ryan. .and hey, TRUMP 2025!!!! We did it!
I’m definitely feeling the Elvis vibe from you ! Looking good! Love the new tattoo!
@Upchurch keep bringing the fire 🔥 new song title for ya Problem child
Real cannot be sold! When you hear a song that makes you turn your head and listen to it a million times because it is so relatable that is priceless and can’t be bought! That is why they mad and try to destroy you because they can’t duplicate what you are doing and how you live!
🤘🤠🤘
Keep preaching church i hear you all the way over here in Gainesboro!!!
1:38 sue for liable slander defamation! Make em go broke WOW that's wild 2:09 WHAT?! 🤯 I didn't know it was THAT bad cuz i get ban& quit the platform for another but I ain't an artist trying to tour& reach my audience. But they attack you. They can't beat resilience like THAT!
It’s funny you mentioned the majority of the stuff you stated because I always wondered how much Record labels drop on fake plays and fake views on mainstream artist page just to get their views up. It’s gotta be hectic.
Facts Ryan! Great video as always skin! 💯🤜🤛
Bro. Its things like this that make you respectable as a person. Calling out and exposing the industry for what it truly is. Thats why i respect folks like you, Trae, Chris Webby, Vin Jay and so many others. Not afraid to speak your mind, and let it all out with your foot on they necks.
"My six is watched by every skin in Dixieland" you have always been the only one that truly speaks for people like me. That grew up in the middle of nowhere, didn't have a whole lot but what we did have we appreciated, many times raised by grandparents because the parents just couldn't commit, the outcast, the black sheep. The misunderstood. A bit of backwoods and hollers and a bit of hood and street. And to those we love, we would literally give our last breath to them if it would give them one more. I never heard my voice until I found you. And I truly thank you for that. They hate you because they've never had the balls big enough to be themselves no matter what like you have. And because you speak the truth, regardless of the consequences. They should tread carefully though. We protect the ones we love with everything in our souls. Hell, just imagine how far we go just to kill a deer, never mind if they took the person that unapologetically represented us. Whatever we can do to help, say the word Skin. Creeksquad for life. P.s. one of the main reasons they come for you like this, is because you're actually up against banks, not "music labels". They give loans, not checks....
Tell em! 🔥☕️💛☀️ what is done in the dark to light ! Love to you !

@DavidBrown-br6vh ooooh gotchu! I remember that now. Got a lot of shit going on and that flew over my head lol, thanks
@ all good man!!!
Interesting how independent musicians get the same treatment as independent politicians.
Hahaaa my man sees it 💪🏻
@@UpchurchOfficialyea you are like Trump, you’re even better than Trump, you’re practically Jesus
Y'all Goofy
@@TrueStoreyPBchill out bro

Old soul really shined through in this one brother.

@ Anytime. You’re the realest dude out there.
Made my whole week just getting to interact with you 😅🐓🤘
fuck them labels brother, you’re music and videos and knowledge you have and bring to the table is like no other. i believe everything you say when you come on these videos and talk man, you’re the only truly and real arist artist there is left man
I'm so freaking glad you said this..when I say it people think I'm crazy...and it's refreshing to know I'm not the only one seeing the bullshit going on.
Holler Boy till I die! Creek Squad has the power in country rap, let's show the bad actors we don't play.
21:01 Mr. Country Music Pappy MFERSsss! 😂😂😂HB to the cofffin! 🫡💪🏻👊🏻
He’s on druuuuuugs 😂. Bubba has no fucks left in the fuck tank. We love you fuggin.
Haha love you too brotha 💪🏻🏴☠️ HB
Exactly the day 1s know what’s up HB for life
"Cmon bubba, we love u bubba, come back to us bubba.." that was cringe and hard to watch
Damnnnn Ryan- I never even thought about it like you are telling us. Damn 😮…..
Why didn’t we think of that !
Spot On🎉❤ Pre fucking up😅😂" Got to work to be timeless" but it comes so easy flow..😂🎉
It's kind of suspect why any independent artist would be telling you you're wrong about exposing the industry, why the hell would they care? They're independent. 🤔. But too bad You were smart enough to figure it out. 🤘
Clearly they are NOT independent
Because most independent artists are secretly hoping, wishing, praying that a Record Label notices them and signs them. Even if they say that's not what they want..... MOST are lying. Most don't know how to turn down that type of money and fame. Sad but true. Church is one of the rare ones who doesn't want the Record Label behind his creativity. That's hard to find ever.
@@Caremmn Maybe b4 2014 but times have changed. I bet Beiber wishes he went the independent route now. He could have done it all on his own. It may take a bit longer but these days people get famous all on their own. And keep all the profits.
Upchurch is legit man. When I was in middle school, he put out cheatham county, heart of america, chicken Willie, bad mutha fucka, and it swept the nation. It felt like somebody representing us. Church used to do music videos and invite tons of people to come be in the video, I knew some of those people and it was so wild man.
Church is a fucking legend. There will never be another dude representing places like Casey county, Kentucky. Dude put it on for the country. “Grass roots” can’t even describe this man.
All of these old ways of doing things in the media at large are dying fast. And it will hit these gatekeepers in music as well. Independent artists should be on those lists just as well today. Especially when you are making the sells. The YOUTH have to make the changes. They have to come together and find ways to make these legacy institutions obsolete.
Well said brother, corporate greed exists to steal creativity and our souls!
Grateful YOU were there to show everyone HOW long ago and still sticking to your word to this day. By you being the one to make the trail seen while being on the trail, you are right that shit makes them mad as fuck. Necks too Red for mainstream BS cuz even going from rags to more rags continuation would occur even if a dollar wasn't made. Knowing that makes me proud to be a part of Creek Squad.

Jelly Rolls apparent over night success has really exposed the music industry. He wasn’t even top in this lane of music but as soon as he signed on that line he became the biggest name out there on everything from CMT to CSPAN to WWE. Working with all the big artists even Eminem. I wouldn’t surprised to see him playing the Super Bowl. It really shows what Upchurch has given up by staying independent. Upchurch has the most talent and the most loyal fans in this lane.
It makes me wonder what Jelly had to give up for the opportunity. I mean he completely changed his music but personally it had to cost him something…
All the info is out there(what they have to do to get that kind of treatment and keep it that way) if he falls off, then u know he didn't want to play their game anymore
Some lil birdie said he has a deadline to lose so much weight, one of they things the use to make sure to keep him inline
@ well he is losing it. But money will make that easier
His soul. Literally and figuratively.

Ryan I'm glad you are you much love from Massachusetts ❤️
Thank you so much I love y’all too
