Whiskey Bent - Cody Johnson & Jelly Roll - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Cody Johnson swapped the rodeo for the stage in 2006 and has never looked back, entering the saloon of modern-day country legends with major-label heavy-hitters like 2019's Ain't Nothin' to It and 2021's Human: The Double Album. For this emotionally charged 2023 ballad "Whiskey Bent," he partnered with another modern-day country music powerhouse, Jelly Roll. Together, the pair grapple with the negative effects of alcohol ("It made me say some things I shouldn't / Made me break some things I wouldn't") and the idea of finding redemption through sobriety ("I'm just tryin' to straighten up what whiskey bent"). Written by Rocky Block, Adam James, and Mikey Reaves, "Whiskey Bent" was featured on Cody Johnson's ninth studio album Leather, which was released in November 2023 by Warner Music Nashville and produced by Trent Willmon. The LP cracked the US Billboard 200 Top 20 and ranked fifth on the US Top Country Albums chart.
