@@trevorm0329you know what bro, lemme give you a short story 😊: some people says South Africa was better in the 80's some people says it was better 10 years ago, but for me I still have both my grandparents who were born in 40's and they always share their experiences with me and tell stories they great-grandparents told them❤, by the way my granddaddy is a farmer "3rd generation" I'm hoping to follow on his footsteps, with all that I love my South Africa bro🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦, and I'm a country boy upon my sleeves, I took me a minute to realize that like I said Americans can honestly teach you a thing about being proud of who you are....... you should visit South Africa sometimes bro 😊❤😊
Respect I'm from Montana America which is north and I still agree be who you are don't change and apologize for anyone and a veteran is a veteran no matter what side❤ thank you for this
@@sbahleonlife Is it safe right now to visit? I know that a couple years ago they were killing white farmers in South Africa and its not the same as it used to be compared to decades ago.
@sbahleonlife that's awesome. The world always needs more farmers . The stories are grandparents tell us are so important, they really help carry on the important parts of our culture and history
He writes his own music though... I think that’s the main basis of this song... artists that don’t write their own music... look at Shelton for example
Im flying by god and i fly it proud for the whole country brother you got respect for southern history and culture well we appreciate that and come on down and enjoy the beautiful scenery great home cooking and the best hunting and fishing in the usa
Don't believe what they tell you in those history books Abraham Lincoln didn't free all the slaves and not all the slaves are black we fought for freedom a lot of lies are passed around about the south but they never tell you about how they genocided us or how they Mass raped women and children destroying anything and I mean anything down the Mississippi River you might be a Westerner but they think of you like they think of us in the Indians were lower beings to the Yankees they don't care about you and they don't care about me we're just people who either live in a place where we are inbred KKK supporting rednecks or a bunch of inbred KKK supporting Hillbillies that's what they think of us and the Indians well we headed just as bad nearly the only thing that makes the Indian stuff worse is that we came onto their land and we didn't just genocide and rape them we did a lot worse we took as much as we possibly could from them not us and not the Confederacy sure as hell not the westerners but it was the Federal Government who did so the Indians knew that that's why most of them joined the Confederacy in fact even after General Lee surrendered there was an Indian General who refused to surrender he did surrender but not before General Lee General Lee surrender to preserve the lives of his men realizing the battle is pointless there is no point losing men to a battle that no longer has a point but considering how they treated the South afterwards I think it would have been better for them all to fight and die killing as many Yankees as they possibly could we were automatically treated like an occupied territory like we were nothing like our people were nothing we were treated as if we were worthless men women and children all alike causing the creation of the Jim Crow laws in the KKK in defense of Southern Culture unfortunately these organizations were very discriminant and very racist causing segregation even today the black people are segregated from the white people but not because of the white people because the black people believe they need special treatment special treatment they don't deserve that no one deserves black lives matter has become an organization resembling the KKK and Isis put together anti-American racist causing death and destruction and some even murdering police officers unfortunately even to this day the South has treated like we are worthless along with the West most of it anyway California Oregon and Washington they are actually worthless they support these terrorists spreading racism and hatred there should only be one race in America and that should be the American race but I never feel like an American I feel like I'm just hated because I was born and raised in this house because some people think my ancestors were racist it was true because all of our ancestors were racist one of our ancestors at the very least we're racist out of all the ancestors 100% one of them was racist that doesn't just go for southern people that goes for everyone to this day our history is still being destroyed the north things were a bunch of inbred KKK supporting rednecks to them we are nothing but peasants south or the West but considering the Yankees are a bunch of idiots they don't realize that peasants have caused the downfall of plenty of monarchies and corrupt governments and even becoming more corruptible French Revolution anyone
@@crw164 The marxist liberals are the ones who made it a racist symbol, not the ones who cling to and understand it. Its the only real symbol of independence left in this nation. It represents the Bill of Rights moreso than the Stars n Stripes. If you think otherwise; just count how many rights you have left out of the 10 and how threatened they are right now.
The confederate flag represents an un-american group of people that defected from the United States and lost a war based on trying to uphold slavery. Why would you want to defend the use of it?
The only guy on RU-vid I like for because I feel like if I met him in the street and he din’ like me he would actually fuckin tell me that’s what respect is you know what I’m sorry I got off topic... Luke is a goddamn sellout go upchurch
My Heritage cupcake. Do you think jabbing ur jaws about something terrible that happened years b4 I was born is relevant to my God given right to be a proud southerner? Clearly, Aron you’re oblivious to southern culture, hospitality, and pride! Bless your heart!
@Aron we get it, you're a bigot. And also ignorant. FYI, there was a South before 1860. Ever heard of the Virginia Colony? Many of our ancestors earned their way here 150+/- years prior to 1860. You may have heard of some of their grandchildren....Revolutioners. You know, those American History makers. Those Anti British Rebels. I bet you didn't even know the Southern Confederacy wasn't even the first American Confederacy. The Southerners that fought in the War of 1860 did so for many different reasons. Your "edjukation" told you it was only one reason. They have dumbed you down so much you don't even know it. This whole current racial-tension causing propaganda bullsheet causes you to be triggered by a flag you don't even have any understanding of. Only what you were told to think - no, not think. What to Feel some way about. So yeah, we have a heritage even if bigoted, Leftist turds like you say we don't. Our ancestors were survivors. We were raised learning how to conquer mountains, to work hard, and live free. We were raised to have manners, morals, respect. We're welcoming, generally friendly, generous. Good food, good music. We have a lot to be proud of, thank you very much.
@@andrewdamon4570 Yup. NEVER bow to the mob. Tell them to piss off no matter how bad it may see or how many threats you get. Patriots will ALWAYS back you up.
@@Ren3gade That's the thing. Luke wasn't never a patriot. He wasn't built to be like the people he supposedly idolized. He was always just a puppet waiting for who ever could pull his strings. The devil offered him money and mainstream success, and he bowed and took the deal. Upchurch told the devil "nah dog, I do it on my own".
Just wanted to say as a U.S. Army Veteran as some of your songs have assisted me with some of my issues coming back from Afghanistan and out of the military. I have been having a hard time with the civilian life after the military and just want to thank you for your music!
I am a black man from Indiana and. I dig Upchurch's music and Upchurch which I can relate because we both have the same mindset. Keep on doing what you're doing Upchurch because you have gained a fan that's been pulling for you for a minute
I can’t stand rap music at all... HOWEVER, I admire THIS young man for having the fucking balls to stand on his two feet and fights for what he believes... not like turncoat combs
@JC Green Fuck you Let the man have his opinion I dont like rap neither do i like upchurch hell yeah do i like his music naw not really is he a badass yeah
@JC Green "I'm not mad" Replies to literally every comment. Keep telling yourself that. I'm gonna keep laughing at you and not respond while you make an ass of yourself for me
@@varcreatefunction thats not what he means he means luke said we dont need another pretty boy singing pretty songs and thats what hes doing now so luke ended up making it a diss on himself and its not a diss on outlaw 💀 there friends
@@BOYONBEASTMODE The so called "confederate" flag your referring to is actually not the confederate flag at all. Apparently you need a history lesson. It's actually the rebel flag and never officially became the confederate flag. Get outta here with your nonsense. The rebel flag represents Southern pride and has a similar meaning to the don't tread on me flag.
@@BOYONBEASTMODE The Confederate flag represents our (southerners) heritage, which means where we come and where we come from from in case u needed to know, the confederate flag has NOTHING to do with racism. Y'all libs need help, and y'all need a lot of it. Maybe ur not American? I know one thing for sure and that is I'm a proud American!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@DM-en5qf true, he used to be good until he sold out. The funny thing is he’s probably doesn’t even like BLM, but he acts like he supports it for his label.
pretty? the only way i could really judge a dude's looks is based on how hot his girl is... but its "pretty" easy to tell that dude is far from being an attractive male lol
@@mykillmatic that’s not what we mean by pretty boy🤦🏽♂️ it means that he’s a not a real country boy and isn’t gritty and doesn’t sing about real country, he just acts country
Im a mixed young girl from South Africa and let me tell you that I fully support whoever wants to raise the flag up high and embrace their heritage. 🤘Outlaws!!!! It's nothing racist at all. A very few of us black people aren't against it, I don't understand why some people are offended by this. Raise and wave that flag and embrace and preserve the culture!!!! Being proud to be Southern isn't a crime. Being white should not offend anyone. Embrace it!!!
Éll Gould you’re 100% right and the small group of amazing people in the “black” community that supports the flag and k owns the real meaning of the flag, they ain’t “BLACK” people, they’re real people. They don’t hop on the “fuck the flag” train because of their favorite artist or idol has jumped on it. I love people of all race, religion, and beliefs. Thank you for being a true person. I really do have HIGH beliefs you will make it FAAAARRR in life. Keep spreading the truth
you're from another country....no offense but just because you're black doesn't mean YOU get to say what's offensive and not racist. The flag in no way affects you. The way i see it, you got to stay. Lots of other people were dragged on ships, forced into slavery, and then forced into war that MIGHT buy their freedom while fighting to keep slavery going. I don't care who flies what as long as it's not blatantly racist..this means a nazi flag- from Nazi Germany. Swastikas are racist..I don't care about this one. BUT i also see why southern white people might want to fly the flag. I see both sides. You can't say there's NOTHING racist about it though because it doesn't affect you at all.
Funny you focus on "5 years later" when him doing this video with rap in it is definitely not country. He was a sellout 5 years ago when he did this video. This ain't country.
@@gametroll6311 yup, and I'm sure those dragging knuckles do real well on a controller. Its evolution. You'd probably think Copperhead Road is completely unrelated to country too if it were 30 years ago, because it was a blend of rock and country. It may not be your flavor, but just cuz you add cherry or vanilla to it don't make it not a Coke.
@@Kryptic95823 You're a dumbass if you think this is anything other than rap. Your analogy is flawed. It's not coke, it's cherry coke or vanilla coke. lol Also I don't consider Copperhead Road country. It's definitely not country either.
I'm black but still have a rebel flag and listen to upchurch..being country helped me to survive the real world and you can't always be too nice in this world too you have to be tough and harsh to survive at some point #respect #upchurch
Hey brother we as white people love you an all blacks. The thing is that flag has got a bad name because of a few ass holes so plz don't think we hate on anyone. God bless brother!!!
I rep my flag proudly but because of some dipsh***s it has a bad image. And I hate nobody because of skin I just hate stupidity and judge based on character
Imagine being the politicians who thought the south would lose on the first day….even setting up picnics for their families to watch and Union getting their shit handed to them. The South just ran out of supplies.
@@tdali6095 imagine being so ignorant, you believe that defeating the South was beneficial for the country in the long run. Imagine also being so ignorant that you think my statement has anything at all to do with maintaining the institution of slavery. TDali, you really should educate yourself beyond what the education system was forced to teach you. We, as a whole, would have been so much better off being able to govern our own lives, not have the federal govt control more aspects of our lives than most realize, and enjoy life without having to work like dogs just to stay afloat. Life was not meant to be borderline poverty for most just to make the fed rich. That is what the federal govt fought for then and what they fight for today. The flag does not represent what you were taught.
As a man of color I fly the Confederate flag along with the American flag. It's about heritage and the understanding of history. People look at me strange being black flying both flags. Us country folk will survive. Like said the market crashes I will be in the deep hills and lakes getting food for my family
It baffles me how non southern narrow minded folks refuse to recognize the diversity in southern culture. Both of my parents are from Naples Italy, and I was born and raised in Tennessee. SOUTHERN PRIDE TILL IM GONE! 🎴🎴🎴
aint gotta be white to like shit. ya like what ya like. i'm white and i like rock , rap , country , oldies , wtfe i feel like listenin to! do you bubba
Good ol' Johnny! Came to the comments after seeing it on your story on IG and here you are lol. Who woulda thought 5 yrs ago, that only one of the artists in this collab would still be standing for what they say in their lyrics. Smh. Get 'em Church!
Antwon Parker ALNH!!!! Love it bro. Dude is kind of sick with entertainment. Some folks is just made for that. I’m the sit back and watch and enjoy guy. Most of the time in the corner but oh well. We need tickets to the next show.
@@nievelatino9691 more of a eggs and bacon person, but I really think Mexico would have been a part of the confederacy. Probably would have a space port there.
@@mintz9782 hey did you know that during the civil war Napoleon ||| was gonna support the confederate but he needed to establish his empire in puebla Mexico some Mexicans agreed others didn't and wanted the France excluded from mexico. Which was successful me I would have joined the confederate
