From Rap Bars to Country Stars: Jelly Roll's Epic Transformation & Humanitarian Honor!
Get ready to throw your cowboy hats in the air, because Jelly Roll—our favorite rapper turned country icon—is back in the headlines, and this time, it’s for something extraordinary! Buckle up and prepare for an amazing tale of redemption, music, and heart.
Last week, Jelly Roll dropped a brand new song, 'Thorns,' and his fans are already vibing with it. But that's not all that’s buzzing—he’s set to snag the 2026 Artist Humanitarian Award at the super cool Country Radio Seminar in Nashville this March! How awesome is that?
Why does this award matter? Well, it’s a big deal given by the Country Radio Broadcasters group to music stars who go beyond just making hits; they make waves of change with their good deeds! Jelly Roll joins the ranks of Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, and many more who’ve shared this honor before.
Jelly Roll’s journey has been anything but ordinary. From a past checkered with felonies to lighting up arenas with his country hits, he’s the ultimate comeback kid. His song 'Save Me' from 2020 was just the beginning. Now, Jelly Roll is all about using his platform to do good—like donating one of his Grammy Awards to Davidson County Juvenile Detention. Talk about giving back and making a statement!
Remember his bold move in 2024? Hitting Capitol Hill to fight the fentanyl crisis and push for change. That’s Jelly Roll for you—using his voice for more than just music.
He’s loud and proud about his past, and it just makes his story even more epic. Rolling Stone caught a brilliant quote from him in 2024, where he said, “For better or worse, we are an accumulation of everything that ever happened to us, and I think that we have to wear that.” What's cooler than a star who owns his story?
Catch the award ceremony on March 18-20 at the Country Radio Seminar in Nashville. Plus, his wife Bunnie XO, who’s killing it as an author and media star, is releasing her new memoir, 'Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic'. You won’t want to miss it!
Jelly Roll is not just riding the waves of music success but also creating waves in the world. Keep an eye out—there’s more to come from this powerhouse duo!
