It's so funny to me that people find a black man singing country to be odd ... down here we have just as many black farmers, ranchers and cowboys as white ones. So why not???

He’s about the hottest singer in country music right now! Last year The Kennedy Center honored Garth Brooks and Jimmie sang The Thunder Rolls to Garth. Garth was thrilled. In 2021 he won the CMA New Artist Award. He is one really humble dude too! Thanks Britt!

I lost my dad back in 2018, so this song hit me hard when I first heard it. Quickly became one of my favorite songs ever. Just wish the radio still played it

Best voice in country for past years

He mentions Charley Pride …. Jimmie got to know and perform with Charley before he passed a couple years ago. Charley was one of the greats and one of the first and only black country artists for such a long time. He certainly blazed a trail and was such a treasure. He’s so missed and what a great legacy that Jimmie is continuing. ♥️ Just proves what matters in music is what’s on the inside, doesn’t have anything to do with what we look like on the outside.

Charley Pride has always been one of my favorite country singers, always will be.

One thing a great country singer can definitely do is bring a tear to your eye.

I absolutely love it when I see black country singers. Country is real and connects us all, when we let it. To see someone of color joining the family is something special. I hope his career explodes off the charts!! I'm a new fan for sure! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I'm so glad he finally got it done have been following him for a while now great voice.

Jimmie Allen is life... and he's cute too!!!

Lots of great black country/bluegrass music artists today. Kane Brown, Mickey Guyton, Darius Rucker, Brittany Spencer, Rhiannon Giddens (banjo), Chapel Heart to name a few.

Love the reaction! Met Jimmie back in 2018 and been friends with him since then. Definitely check out more of his music, you will not be disappointed! He’s such a down to earth guy and super humble. Can’t wait to see more reaction from you! 😌

Charlie Pride and Darius Rucker are also a must for young black country fans.

Such an authentic vibe. Love me some Jimmie Allan.

Never heard him before, he's freaking awesome! 👏👏👏 He mentions Charlie Pride......that's enough for me to know he's legit! Charlie was one of my all time favorites.

Delaware made! Jimmie Allen makes his hometown proud. 684!

Great country singer.❤

He one of the best singers in country music right now he is on your with Carrie Underwood and he is bring it to the fans him and Carrie sings a song together

Allen won the well deserved ACM New Artist of the Year in 2021, and he clearly has the heart. Hope we hear a lot more from him in the years to come.

Love him, we are Delaware proud

Jimmie has a fantastic voice and is so talented. I'm glad to watch him grow into his future in country music!

Beautiful reaction. HEY, JIMMIE ALLAN, I think you have a new fan!🤩

I love love love Jimmie Allen! He wrote this song for his Daddy who passed in 2019. You should do more of him please. “Freedom Was a Highway” with Brad Paisley is a fun high energy song that takes us back to younger days and “All Tractors ain’t Green” is a favorite, the lyrics are such a beautiful way of addressing the obvious difference between him and most country singers. ❤

Im with you, love his voice, music and performance swag - I have seen Jimmie Allen in concert four times now - most recently in March with Carrie Underwood on her Denim and Rhinestones tour. God's grace, mercy and peace to Jimmie and all involved.

Dudes voice is great and this song chokes me up too especially with both my parents gone

You’ve got to react to “gonna make me want to” by Jimmy Allen. You won’t be disappointed, it’s one of his first hits!!!

First I have to say I love your reaction so much. You are so sincere and you share your heart. You treat everything you listen to with much respect! Isn't Jimmie Allan wonderful! He's my favorite country singer right now. And I agree with you 100% he could sing any genre he wanted to. Country music is blessed to have him. I listen to a lot of genres myself I'm glad he's in this one.

Oh he's is good heres a bit of info on him. A native of Milton, Delaware, Jimmie Allen was born on June 18, 1985. Allen began singing as part of speech therapy while in middle school, and music soon became an obsession. Once he was an adult, he headed to Nashville in 2007, intent on working his way into the country music industry. After a rough start -- he spent several months living in his car -- he began working as a songwriter, landing a few publishing deals; one of his songs even appeared in a Super Bowl commercial. Allen harbored dreams of performing. He'd sing and work as a standup comic, auditioning for America's Got Talent, where he didn't make the cut. He did make it onto American Idol in 2010, the year that Scotty McCreery took home the crown; he made it to Hollywood but didn't go much further. Allen kept plugging away in Nashville while working a variety of jobs, occasionally getting closer to the spotlight (he got a bit part in a Taylor Swift commercial for soda in 2013), eventually catching a break when he met producer/songwriter Ash Bowers in 2016. A year later, Allen signed with BBR's Stoney Creek Records subsidiary in August 2017 and released "Blue Jean Baby," which was the first single from his self-titled debut EP. Released late in 2017, the set was produced by Ash Bowers and Eric Torres. Named after the street where he grew up, Mercury Lane, Allen's first long-player, arrived in October 2018. It debuted at 11 on Billboard's Country Albums chart upon its release. Shortly afterward, "Best Shot" worked its way to number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart; it was followed there in 2019 by 'Make Me Want To." Allen worked at cultivating an audience beyond country music: in 2019, he teamed up with Abby Anderson for a cover of the Lady Gaga hit "Shallow," and in 2020, he released "This Is Us," a duet with pop singer Noah Cyrus. The latter track appeared on his follow-up EP, Bettie James, in July of that year; the record was named after his late grandmother (Bettie) and father (James). "Freedom Was a Highway," a duet with Brad Paisley, rocketed to the top of the Billboard Country Airplay charts in 2021, kicking off an eventful year for Jimmie Allen. "Freedom Was a Highway" anchored the "Gold Edition" reissue of Bettie James, which came out in June of that year. Around its release, he founded the music festival the Bettie James Fest in his hometown of Milton, Delaware. By the end of the year, Allen also published the children's book My Voice Is a Trumpet in 2021 and appeared on the 30th season of Dancing with the Stars. During this time, he became the first Black solo act to win New Male Artist of the Year at the Academy of Country Music Awards, which was only one of his belated nods for New Artist: he also won New Artist of the Year at the Country Music Awards and was nominated for Best New Artist at the 64th Grammy Awards, along with being named the Outstanding New Artist at the 53rd NAACP Image Awards. Jimmie Allen returned with his second proper studio album, Tulip Drive, in 2022. Named after the street where his grandmother lived -- an echo of the genesis of the Mercury Lane title named after his own childhood street -- Tulip Drive was a lengthy pop-oriented album featuring cameos by Jennifer Lopez, T-Pain, CeeLo Green, Katie Ohh, and Allen's son Aadyn. Allen supported Tulip Drive by being Carrie Underwood's supporting act on her Denim &

Darius Rucker is someone else you should check out. If I told you is one of my favorites. This is a beautiful song from Jimmy Allen. So touching

Shallow is a great song of his

Never heard this song before. Loving it.

he is the man

Talking about he can sing any genre, I saw him on the Kelly Clarkson show and he said he sings the song popular from wicked before each show on his bus. He said a bit of it too, it was great lol.

Habits & hearts is another great one.

A gorgeous song and what a great voice he has. Beautiful tribute to our dads who are in heaven 😊🙏

Girl, it choked me up too..

Warms my heart to know that Country Music is so alive in young talented artists. Talent is generational and there is a wave of greatness breaking on us now. New artists, new songs, just good old country music...

Jimmie Allen wrote this about his dad who passed away within the last 4-5 yrs. It’s such a sweet song. Brit, I love how you feel the emotions of a song.

This song kills me but I love it. I lost my father who always wanted my wife and me to try for a girl (we had 3 boys) A little over a year after he passed we had another child. A beautiful baby girl that has the same blue eyes he had (none of my other kids have blue eyes) I wish so bad that he could have met her but as the song says I know you're up there looking down here. I have since lost my mother as well and these songs just rip me apart but I can't help but love them.

a new artists to me, i like him

The man has it ! Love this song and the way he conveys it. Another fun reaction, thanks !!

Damn. I'll be listening for it. I love it.

You’ve got to check out Freedom is a Highway, he collabs with Brad Paisley. You’ll love the song ❤️

I've heard this song on the radio, and it's a favorite. Never saw the video or knew who sang it. What a super wonderful surprise! I love seeing people put themselves out there in unexpected ways and succeeding! He is a treasure with a beautiful God given talent. I am a fan! ❤ Looking forward to hearing more from him!

Luv ya girl! I really enjoy watching ur reactions.

“He could sing any genre.” Where did that come from? Why would he choose something other than what he loves to sing? 50% of Americans listen to country music and I think they are very loyal so lots of artists have very long & successful careers. Can’t see Jimmy singing pop. Perfect country voice.

This song was written by Jimmie Allen, Tate Howell, Rian Ball & Cameron Bedell who are his friends. It was co-produced by Jimmie Allen also. His father passed in 2019.

Jimmy's one of the best we have in country right now. He's perfection with a southern drawl.

You should listen to Jimmie and For King and Country sing this on CMT’s Crossroads. Excellent!

I don't know if there is a video for this one, but take the time to listen to "All Tractors Ain't Green". It's so good! 🩷

I LOVED your reaction to this as well as LOVE Jimmie Allen!! If you get a chance, please checkout and react to his song, "Best Shot". Such a sweet song and as always his great singing ability. "This Is Us" is another great song he dueted with Miley Cyrus's sister.

OMG 😂 I am ROLLING!!! Girl your facial expressions...and panty droppin club!!!! Yes girl YASS!! Bahahaha!!!! Came here for your Carpenters reaction 💁‍♀️ ...new subscriber ❤️

Love Me Some Britt….still sending ya love, Great Reaction Britt!!

Beautiful song, I hadn't heard this one! Definitely check out Charlie Pride, Kiss an Angel Good Morning is a good one. Also, something with a very different sound but a similar wordplay is "Homeboy" by Eric Church.

This is a great song and I knew it was about someone who passed away, but I didn't know who because my attention has always been 80-90% on the music of a song and 10-20% on the lyrics (I've been a musician since I was a kid). Now that I know it's about his dad, I can't stop thinking about my father (who died at 68 y/o from colon cancer...on the official day of his retirement) and my mother (who died in 2021 from the after effects of COVID). 😭

Love your reactions! I think you would love some Josh Turner! " Would You Go With Me" is my favorite. Also "Baby Lock them Doors" and " Long Black Train"

you would really love hearing luke combs "beautiful crazy" luke adds r&b in his country voice

FYI: Jimmie appeared on Dancing With the Stars.

HEY BRITT Your reactions are great. You have to go on the Jimmie Allen journey. Definitely go with "Freedom was a Highway" next. I saw him at the Tortuga Music festival and everybody was singing along with him for an hour and half straight. His new school country is freaking awesome yo.
