Justus Reid is not one of those people. He didn&#8217;t save, he stole money from his parents. Who is Justus Reid and why is he No1 USA influencer in Croatia and Balkan? Read the fucking interview and you will know.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>How the fuck did one guy from USA become so obsessed with Croatian and Balkan music? The Croatian secret service asked me to check: Where do you live in the USA, how old are you and where did you hear our music? Do you work for the CIA? Don&#8217;t force me to take you to Croatian Guantanamo (Read &#8211; Cucerje) for investigation. If you played USA songs, no one would know for you, but now you are an EXYU celebrity!?\u00a0 Life is not fair. Don&#8217;t steal bread from our poor musicians. Play some country music \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">I always say that I didn\u2019t choose Balkan, Balkan chose me! Back when I started my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@justus_reid\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Tik Tok<\/span><\/strong><\/a> profile all of my videos were about cars (another passion of mine) and one video I made really grabbed the attention of Balkan People. The video was about (as it is known in America) the worst car ever made, the Yugo. When that video went viral in Balkan I decided to show them my other passion, music. I made a video where I sang a Serbian song, found a new audience, and have been singing Balkan songs ever since. I never have discovered Balkan music on my own. Every Balkan song I sing is recommended to me by a fan.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@justus_reid\/video\/7175561365791313194\" data-video-id=\"7175561365791313194\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width: 605px;min-width: 325px;\" >\n<section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@justus_reid\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@justus_reid?refer=embed\">@justus_reid<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Who\u2019s singing along!? <a title=\"balkan\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/balkan?refer=embed\">#balkan<\/a> <a title=\"croatia\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/croatia?refer=embed\">#croatia<\/a> <a title=\"hrvatska\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/hrvatska?refer=embed\">#hrvatska<\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - Justus Reid\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7175561377963166510?refer=embed\">\u266c original sound &#8211; Justus Reid<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I\u2019m 22 years old and live in South Dakota, USA.
