justbrandon is carving his own path as a country rapper. He’s not the first to recognize synchronicities between country and other genres like soul, pop, and hip-hop. We’ve seen it before from Post Malone and Beyoncé. In fact, justbrandon teamed up with COWBOY CARTER collaborator Willie Jones on his cathartic new single, “Bury Me On A Backroad”. justbrandon surrenders to all that he cannot control and accepts his fate on this hauntingly visceral track.

“Bury Me On A Backroad” captivates with an anthemic chorus, decadent beats, and ruminative riffs that resurface old memories. The lyrics are blunt and direct, bearing levels of emotional honesty that I haven’t seen in a long time. He sings, “Bury me on a back road / In a flyover state with no name on the stone / 'Cause I don't want nobody crying at my grave / I don't want my family to go through that pain / So bury me on a back road / In a flyover state with no name on the stone.” justbrandon and Willie Jones shed the weight of their attachments by returning to the unknown.

The sentiment of this single comes alive with the bustling sonics and lonely vocals that transport you to a desolate, open road. The idea of passing on and leaving our loved ones behind is gritty. Country music and rap don’t shy away from that. “Bury Me On A Backroad” speaks to the core of the human experience as justbrandon and Willie Jones sink their teeth into the truth of reality.

justbrandon grew up in Southern Indiana where he began making music as a kid. He’s explored multiple avenues within the music industry as a songwriter, producer, creative director, and A&R. His dedication to his craft shines through in everything he creates. “Bury Me On A Background” is a beacon of his skill as a producer and his identity as an artist.
