Jelky Roll "IS" one of the "ANGELS" among us. He's my number one, always in any genre of music. I love this man❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@kellyj7262]

LOVE THE FACT THIS MAN IS GETTING THE RECOGNITION HE'S ALWAYS DESERVED!!!!!😢 his story is amazing!!! He's amazing!!!

[@donna865]

Jelly Roll talking about those in the church who want to look down on him and judge him reminded me of a scene from "Walk the Line", though I don't know if Johnny Cash really said it or if was just written for the movie: A record company executive says "Your fans are church folk, Johnny. Christians. They don't wanna hear you singing to a bunch of murderers and rapists, tryin' to cheer 'em up." and Johnny replies "Well, they're not Christians, then." I first came across Jelly Roll from watching a reaction viewing of his appearance with Craig Morgan at the Grand Ole Opry - and I was blown away by both of them and the emotion you could see happening on that stage. I've since dived right down the rabbit hole and wish him all the success in the world as well as peace and happiness in his life and in his soul.

As a guy that's followed and listened to jelly for like 15years. Everything that is happening to this man and his family is so so very deserved. Jelly not only and quite literally saved my life in the most direct meaning, he's also taught me so much. Jelly rolls music is true chicken noodle soup for the soul. There isn't a more deserving person for this all to have happen to. Jelly, one day I will meet you and will be able to shake your hand with tears rolling down my face and tell you thank you so very very much! Bubba we get together one day and it's gonna be a fukn party!

[@SessionWill]

Jelly roll saved me and many many others this man should be honored for that in some way no other artist has been honored

[@montibarnett6740]

I hadn't followed jelly roll until recently but I'm falling in love with this man and his wife Bunny

[@robinparker1914]

You will reach your biggest dreams. You are a breathe of straight up no bullshit air! Keep on keeping on. We love you man!

[@lillinsey100]

[@alicia89]

[@TVJunkie1973]

Love, love, love this man! I can’t wait to buy my ticket to see Jelly at Madison Square Garden!!! That’s my dream!!!

[@montibarnett6740]

He's proved that nobody is a lost cause everybody needs another chance

[@NelsonTrealout-lv3uc]

[@tammydunlop8587]

I love Jelly Roll ❤ I got my high school diploma at 25 and had a troubled life since 15 and I pray there's a smoking section 😂 I feel your headache and struggle with hereditary addiction... hugs and prayers 🙏 my son is 20 and he's my life too ❤ I'm the daughter of a sinner whose parents cult church told me at 15 I was going to burn in the everlasting lake of fire 🔥 stay blessed always Jelly 😊

[@cindykeenon2744]

[@nicolesizemore]

I love how each time he has a interview, you learn something new about Jelly Roll. Love you so much Jelly!!! 💗

[@pamschiavone9101]

I lover this guy

[@frasermackenzie7275]

Yes true, but unfortunately the interviewer questions are now ALL sounding the same. So J needs to try to answer them differently. Which is sad these media industry "certified interviewers" can not research for different types of questions to ask, instead of the same "Top Questions to ask Jelly" BULLS'IT

[@nicolesizemore]

Yes this for sure!

[@user-if3wz7qo7v]

As someone who has struggled with Autism, Depersionalization / Derealization, PSTD, and Agoraphobia I spent alot of time in one room for years off and on due to the inability to cope with to much stimulation I can understand your mom I think. I can understand how music and art can help in so many ways. I grew up with a dad that didn't accept any kind of mind issues.

[@JitBenjamin]

Like my comment If you believed in jelly roll before country music!! We go way back!

[@bradlamb9075]

[@Crazy4Crazy601]

I know you hear this all the time but, You Are A Life Saver! Thank you for just being you! Its not a common thing for people to be real and honest anymore. So glad there's still a few that will stand alone if need be and speak the truth. The world needs more people to do the same and stand for the Good and what's right. You give me hope and confidence in myself because I to try to do the same. I'm Blessed to be here and I took every wrong road before I got here. But I'm here I pray I get to make a difference in someone's life. Maybe one day make it to a good concert and meet some of the people that unknowingly grew up with me

[@melaniedawnfortier9376]

Now today I have 8 years clean and your music honestly helps me when the devil taps my shoulder. I love you jellyroll. I have so much respect for you and I also love your vulnerable side. Don't ever be ashamed to cry . The tears clean our soul. I Love you jelly

[@debbiedale2691]

Yes !!!

[@NakEdits]

Jelly I hope you can tour Australia..

[@jerimccarty8411]

This Man has got my absolute RESPECT He went to congress and spoke his mind about fentenol and he was bold, and brave! He got the attention of the deepstate p.o.s. that can actually do something (with his Bad ass Female sitting directly in back of him ) He told the world how he felt with such passion. And I think it should be a beginning to a challenge for any famous person that has the balls to do the same!! One more thing.. HOW LOVING IS THAT to have your wife give you her foot to touch and calm your nerves. She ROCKS!!

[@angiegowan253]

Genuine!!!!!

[@melaniedawnfortier9376]

Yeskid rock🎉🎉🎉

[@Steph-1207]

I can most definitely relate to being an addict. I struggle years and years trying to walk away from it. I can now say I'm working towards 6 years . There needs to be more treatment places ( Especially inside the walls ) and giving more love and care and understanding towards the people struggling. If American would just listen to people instead of just hearing them . That young man addicted to heroin is someones son , grandson , nephew. That no one listens too.

[@user-gw2pk4gf6k]

Anabelle writes music & raps. She just turned 16 & is a run away. 😞 Wish she could get a chance at her dreams rn. I think it would turn everything around for this precious kiddo.

[@teresachapman5122]

Jelly roll I am with you on Bob Seger I guess when I love it every time I played that song to go out onstage I have nothing but silence Indian afterwards has standing ovation

[@JB-ef7ks]

I really disliked JR for a while till seeing these interviews of him and finally realizing he's a real ass motherfucker and stand up dude that I hope I can meet in person and befriend one day soon! He nails it with the Christian church hypocrisy and this interviews really won me over n made me love him cause he thinks n talks exactly like me!! Thank you for making this video n hopefully one day I'll get to meet this brother from another mother!!!

[@debbiedale2691]

Too Funny 😂

[@terigarner3494]

[@laurajohnsen1171]

I think they should also try to get animal in rich ments like of the prison have cause teach care and discipline as well as other think everyone needs in life.

[@springchickena1]

the story of jesus and his mother was the original story of innana and dummuzi she descended the 7 levels of the underworld into the first built pyramid to find her son, as story goes; other accounts have dumuzu following innana into the underworld in the pyramid. the pyramids now point to the seven sister stars

[@hollyleann2.0]

Nashville has the worst mental health care system. I personally think Jason has many autistic traits. So many have been misdiagnosed, and let down on music row. Naomi Judd being one of recent .

[@nicolesizemore]

I don't think Jelly is autistic. But defiantly grew up like some of us without the support resources and love they deserved.

[@melaniedawnfortier9376]

True jelly my fav❤❤❤❤❤😊

[@melaniedawnfortier9376]

😂😂😂😂

[@humter5247]

I take great offense to that why would you seem to think that I wouldn’t sing wagon wheel at the top of my lungs at a red light?

[@frasermackenzie7275]

unfortunately the interviewer questions are now ALL sounding the same. So J needs to try to answer them differently. Which is sad these media industry "certified interviewers" can not research for different types of questions to ask, instead of the same "Top Questions to ask Jelly" BULLS'IT

[@jamesphillips5868]

This man has a good story but I’ve yet to see a good interview of him…need that VladTV interview.

[@nataliekloster2279]

Big pillow in front him hide his fat belly lol

[@donnainglis1888]

Who in NZ said no! So disappointing!

[@sKid-zy1ss]

Is that a fella ?

[@nicholasgerstenberger5762]

Why .... she so stuck up

[@debramusicom]

Every working person in America loves Jelly Roll or if they haven’t heard of him as soon as they hear him they are a fan.

[@debramusicom]

Cuz give me a call I really want to hear more frog stories I want to connect with all my dad’s side of the family. Love and respect.

[@missyjoyner6784]

Love u jelly
