DID HE RETIRE!? Upchurch "Operation: GHOST" 

Nope just taking a break from the BS regrouping , writing new music! He will come out with master music and blow our minds ❤❤❤❤

Simba , just know you are going to be the source ,and I speak for most people who won't know how to find his new stuff that's going to start Ryan's next 10yrs of awesomeness.

When I watched this video, a line from one of his songs was all I could think of: "You're about to find out why I wrote ghost on them videos since 2016".

He's retiring the "Name" and coming back like Prince did as The Artist ‼️👍🏻

Already gonna miss church's funny videos and other amazing talented music he is a one of a kind and has been an inspiration to me the last 10 years sorry Churchman that you have to go thru all of this all of us fans will be waiting for your return! God bless each and every creeker 🤘🤙🙏 creeksquad for life baby!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 thanks @simba for the reaction video

Ryan is just the GOAT, it’s that simple. Nuff said.

I think he's brilliant, strong and a definite warrior! & I love that he is taking himself away, taking the fuel from his DA parents & other haters that seek clout, money & attention off of trying to dog & provoke him... if he's gone and not sharing anything and completely forgetting they exist, they lose all of that & there's nothing they can do about it! FKG brilliant & strong AF! & deeming him in SHARK mode couldn't have been more accurate!

He's amazing I know it's so weird now not seeing any updates on Instagram or RU-vid from him I hope with him going on break for a while he comes back as a stronger man and a new person he deserves a break from everything I really love Ryan Upchurch never been to any of the shows would love to one day

Broke my heeat to see he had to do this for people fuggin him over. I've followed this man for years and his music seriously sahed my life. He helped me not knowing it like many others. I really hope hes not done. But if so thank you to him!!! I'll forever have him blasting with the windows down. If he comes back with a different name, i hope i find him. 🙏 to the GOAT

He won't stop God and Angel are bring him forward . We are blessed by this man. ❤❤❤❤

Of all the artists I've opened for over the years....NO ONE was universally known like Upchurch. He has a huge name and following in real life lol. Not just internet etc. Hard to argue he "beat the game". Huge respect.

he's going full creeker mode. aka operation ghost. ghost most people can't see unless your third eye is tuned in to that higher frequency.

My GF is a die-hard Upchurch fan. Ryan recently posted a video titled Operation:Ghost, where he publicly voiced his decision to officially retire 'Upchurch' as a musician/the entity, etc. °•She has a theory that Ryan has decided to become a ghost writer•°(Here's the definition) Ghost Writer:is a person hired to write literary or journalistic works, speeches, or other texts that are putatively credited to another person as the author. Celebrities, executives, participants in timely news stories, and political leaders often hire ghostwriters to draft or edit autobiographies, memoirs, magazine articles, or other written material. Machine gun Kelly hired ghost Writer to write the song lyrics to his anelite

Man you reactions are great. Helps me see new sides to music I watched this and didn’t realize certain things

@SimbaTV I truly appreciate you and your heartfelt response/ reaction to this! No longer just as a FAN of his music now, but ALSO AS ONE OF HIS FIRST TRUE FAN WHO TURNED INTO A GENUINE FRIEND, FROM WITHIN THE REACTION COMMUNITY & CREEK SQUAD AS A WHOLE! ❤ Y'ALL GREW TOGETHER AND HE INSPIRED YOU WITH HIS SKILLS AND NOW YOUR SKILLS ARE FLOURISHING! IT'S JUST SUCH A COOL AND SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP! SADLY, AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOU REMAINED TRULY LOYAL, WHEN THOSE CLOSEST TO HIM STABBED HIM IN THE BACK.... UNBELIEVABLE! IT'S JUST SO BEYOND HORRIFIC! GRRR! 🤬😡ANYWAY, I TRULY APPRECIATE YOU & CREEK SQUAD ZS A WHOLE, AND IT'S THOSE FRIENDS AND PEOPLE LIKE Y'ALL, WHO KEEP HIM MOVING FORWARD & SANE FOR REALZ!! AS FAR AS HIM RETIRING OR CHANGING HIS NAME. I HOPE NOT! I AM PERSONALLY SIMPLY GOING TO PRAY 🌹✝️🙏💕🙏✝️🌹FOR HIM THAT INSTEAD, HE SIMPLY TAKES THE TIME HE NEEDS TO HEAL. AND CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD, AS RYAN UPCHURCH. HOWEVER, I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND WHY HE FEELS LIKE THAT, AND WHY HE'S CONSIDERED CHANGING HIS NAME, AND STARTING OVER, FOR REAL!! 🤣

It seems to me what Upchurch has planned is to be done with his channel he has now and name and he is retiring as Upchurch and coming back stronger and better then before as a new name I say I hope it is soon we need Upchurch and hell these damn haters and stuff need to leave him alone and fuck off

Church in full you’ll never see these eyes again mode

All people need a break from work and life especially the famous ones. Praying that he comes back soon; just started to listen to his music about 10 months ago and I’m addicting to his music

Family will drag you to hell faster than almost anyone else. I've loved Upchurch for years. Jelly was my favorite in 2016 and found Upchurch through his music and have listened to them ever since along with Adam❤

Big facts brother he’s the goat and he always will be the goat🫡💪🤘🏻💯

What's up Simba my guy? Much love to you and your loved ones, from across the pond Scotland. 🙏⚔️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚔️🌹

Respect to you simba.🤝 Youve been a true fan of ryans along the way - as i am here in uk......i agree with wat hes doin -operation ghost is gona be fire on return! Simba🤝

Weird albino praying mantis. I'm dead😂, but seriously creek squad for life . Love the reaction.

Church is the best! He will be back ❤

Best role model for young men this country has had in a very very long time

Literally been stocking your page for this video since i watched upchurch drop it🤣

Love the instep photo Simba! I’m from there, and saw northern lights every winter we lived in Fairbanks. You gotta see em in person!

I love this Ryan upchurch ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

🤘🏻💯Been here through it all and I don’t plan on going anywhere💯🤘🏻

Definitely gonna need to keep a eye out for new music video and artist you do reaction videos on.

ghost lives at ghost Ranch now. I found Simbatv because of Ryan and discovered a lot of other cool stuff. Keep it up Simba I been subscribin since you were at 30k. Always good content.

Finally

100% stand with you CHURCH

@RyanUpchurch Is an awesome and prideful person Ive ever seen. I love his music and his work ethic. I hope he does come back because he is an amazing badass. I'm truly sorry for all the bullshit he has had to go through though.

This should be pretty interesting like everything with Upchurch has been. ♥️

hes a old soul in a young body . damn i will miss him !

Gonna miss Upchurchs content #creesquad

Why do I have the feeling he's gonna come back with a new legal name

💯💯💯💯💯💥💯

That man’s been my idol since I was barely a teenager. He’s a fucking legend 💯

country have said it any better bro. Keep up the great work..

💯CREEKSQUAD FOR LIFE💯

We about to find out why he wrote ghost on all them video since 2016... Remember the lyrics on Hideas?

Id agree simba that uochurch is stro f mentally but even the strongest break i just hope he has his personal moments wirh himself were he breaks down and sheds some tears it helps you dont hv to squawl like a toddler.....

O no there goes simba TV 😂

Not going to say much he might come back with something else but we will always know him as upchurch

I wish Upchurch would come out with a clothing line. I know he probably thinks he will be taking advantage of people but I want some merch!

That will always be my white thound love you boo ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Patience

Ryan has already beat the game . He is playing the next difficulty and will beat the game again !

Love the ghost idea like Garth Brooks and his Chris Gaines.

I love this man with all my heart and I have for years do you know how you ask him the questions

hell yeah do that upchurch no title

30 pinball machines =i shoulda known then 😂😂😂. That killed me to..🤝

If he’s happy I’m happy! After your reaction, just let him be!

Awww heck no he ain’t retiring… he is just taking sometime to do some stuff …. Don’t get that rumor started ❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂

he was giving a hit with the video games you guys

Big fan of the old Ryan, can't wait to be a big fan of the new Ryan. Hell yeah

Simba, like we all do take break from Utube , for awhile. Enjoy your evening 💕☺️

Can't wait to see his comeback. I fully expect a legal name change, as well as sales of all his stuff and a move to a new place. New RU-vid channel, new name, new house, new cars, new life. Same player, new game. Ill be tuned in hoping to catch it early.

I'm starting to think that he's has this planned in some way for years. Look at all of the music videos that had "Ghost" written somewhere in the video. Also in Holler Boys video he had Coyote wrote on the truck. I've always wondered what that meant.

First

I think I deciphered his new persona and album just based on how he was talking and acting in the later half of the video and only the creekers caught it 😉

Upchurch will always be the King of the South, even if he does retire. Creeksquad RHEC 🐏💯🔥

I hope he’s not retiring. I hope he’s just re-branding. Specially, from all the BS that’s happened in his life recently. I hope he comes out with his own merch would be sick and fire

Wish he’d come back to touring, couldn’t do harm for him to get back around with his real skins who love him and jam the fuck out for a few weeks. I miss the banger days, up on a stage breaking stages, he’s still super young so I’m sure he’ll come back but man those was the days

i believe he will come back as ghost and have an album dropped titled ‘’ the ghost of upchurch ‘’ it’s only right because he owns the ghost ranch . I’m curious, im here either way . Well done church, well done.

Ol son is out here playing chess while everyone going up against him is playing cards

Well if you find him before i do let me know 😂

The Artist formerly known as “Upchurch”

He's got some screws loose in that head, I fucking love it😂

I think Ryan awesome music great guy an hope he does it like Johnny Cash an Willie Nelson an never stop hope meet u an him simba yall cool mf been falling him an u least 9 years for him watch u an him party in tenn. So much likes to both yall both yall keep it up. Trophy 🏆

Hell be a rebel flag artist formally known as upchurch lol

He’s gonna come back as the Holy Ghost. (Aka music god) from church to god

So we get a post Macavelli Ryan at some point?

I may have mistaken but he didn’t include hideas in his list of albums.

Anyone find anything yet

What if "Upchurch" what fucking if, he can keep all his songs. Changes his name to ghost and signs a deal. Then proceeds to continue to fuck the music industry!? Dudes a legand!

u doing ok simba ? you look kinda down lately you good homie.

Doesn't he have a country album supposed to be coming out?

Oh no. You ain't coming back as a chicken are you 😂lol

I think he’s gonna go rock with a mask named ghost. I just see that lol he’s going Hollywood undead on us with the mask.

Its messed up No doubt. I truly believe he will return. Thanks for Sharing, Respect 🙏 🫡

Sounds like he's going to do what marketers/Public Affairs folks call a "rebranding". It's basically going to throttle the anti-Upchurch barnacles that leech off his current brand.

Did you listen HE GONE AND ODNE IT AND HE GONNA DO IT AGAIN ...watch again DEAR ...

I AM KNOT PATIENT LOL

No its called reinvention!

Hey simba i know you would never say it for the masses to see but id like to know what you hv thought about this whole situation but im sure you are like me its not our business even though upchurch puts all out for it to be our business lol my feelings on one thing is he they should hv kept most the personal things out of the spotlight

Yea but that's gonna suck I mean yea he ain't got nothing to prove or anything like that but I never really gave a shit what he accomplished or didn't I liked watching his stuff cause I can relate to the shit he's been through and goin through an I ain't even got money like that I'm a senior mechanic for a corrugate plant mofos still steal and stab me in the fuckin back constantly so I relate real closely to the shit he goes through if y'all ever come to York PA I'm telling ya watch your back an don't let nobody in cause mfrs up here he telling on people stealing an back stabbing

I bet he does like a whole faceless thing goes by a different name changes up his background might even use a voice changer he already knows how to get views and that’s really all he needs to get back out there a 2nd time

he has an video gaming channel just messing with people

Love your videos. What kind of weather do you like cold weather or hot weather

This doesn't sound like he's in settlement negotiations with Patty like she claims.

There is no way that all this you say happened to you did not affect you. It obviously did by what you say you are going to do. If you have done it all and have attained the summit as Ryan Upchurch the decision you are making now has nothing to do with making music because as you said, you have done it all and hit the ceiling. So your solution is to reinvent yourself but how is the question. What will you be doing as the new Church? New name? New look? Different genre of music? So all those who have supported you through everything and loved you for who you were and still are and bought your music because they liked and enjoyed it and loved the fact of how proud you always said and still says you are in writing & singing/rapping real country is now going to, well will have to wait and see. Of course all that has happened to you regarding your parents, some you considered friends and RHEC has to have hit real hard and if not tear a piece of your heart out, then led to the mistrust of most everyone and the inner reflection you are going through now. Even mentioning fans or more likely subs being bots. You would not have had such success if not for your many fans which, of course, you are aware of. You feel you have nowhere to go but start over as if running away? You once apologized to your fans and said you were quitting for awhile as you needed time but that didn't last. I would have crumbled if all this had happened to me and I don't blame you for any decision you make as it's your life after all. I am simply trying to put it all together. Saying you just flicked it all away like they were flies and just carried on like nothing happened is painful to hear as it apparently has and would touch any human with a heart. I wish you peace of heart and mind and no matter your decision on the "new" you I'm sure your fans will always be there waiting for you. I sincerely wish you all that is good. Until we meet again🎸🙏🏽✌🏽

Everyone refuses to see it's a shame hope he gets help he has that mental stability because drugs

He forgot hi ideas.

I'm Sure He Does Need a Break And Ignore All His Mother Continues To Do! Can't Stop With Stories of her EX Bf! She is 50 Plus And Continues To Push Hate On Her Son! But for her PROOF ITS BRING OUT DIARIES OF HER EX!! I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE DO THIS STUFF TO GOOD PEOPLE! Church will Return!

What’s crazy is the stuff going on with his mom came out to be completely fake I love church but he’s completely lost his mind the man don’t even focus on music anymore he thinks he’s a crime investigator when he’s not he thinks the government is after him pills has ruined this man’s life if he would go back to just focusing on music his life wouldn’t be so hectic he’s been focusing on other people instead of his own life and it’s taking a toll on him he’s not the same church from 2013 anymore

You can tell he’s on pills in this video there’s a big difference in smoking weed

This could be a very clever way to avoid paying out future earnings under the entity “Ryan Upchurch” in the doubtful event he lost one of those frivolous lawsuits.
