Why is Jelly Roll so famous?

Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Jelly Roll has made a name for himself as a versatile artist blending rap, rock and country. After gaining underground recognition in the Southern rap scene, his career took off when he transitioned into country music, achieving mainstream success with hits such as "Son of a Sinner" and "Need a Favor."

Since 2011, Jelly Roll has released more than 20 albums and mixtapes, showcasing his ability to fuse genres and connect with listeners through raw and honest storytelling.

His 2021 album “Ballads of the Broken” marked a turning point in his career, with singles like "Save Me" and "Son of a Sinner" earning widespread acclaim.

Released in 2023, his debut country album, “Whitsitt Chapel,” topped charts and solidified his crossover appeal.

He’s also known for collaborations with artists such as Tech N9ne, Struggle Jennings and Lil Wyte. He earned three CMT Awards in 2023.

Jelly Roll headlined Country Thunder Arizona in April 2024.

In reviewing that performance, The Republic wrote, "He’s like a gospel tent revivalist with way more face tattoos than your typical preacher. And before the night was through, he'd delivered an uplifting sermon or two for a crowd he said numbered as many as 26,000, framing his darkest hours as a pathway to enlightenment."

Their latest album, “Have a Nice Day,” landed them on several top album lists while solidifying their place in the country rock genre.

Treaty Oak Revival made their debut at the Grand Ole Opry, a significant milestone for any country artist, this year.
