On April 25th, the “Still Playin’ Possum” tribute to George Jones happened in Huntsville, Alabama with 26 artists in total performing at the tribute. Jelly Roll is also partnering with Garth Brooks to participate in the first ever Billboard Country Live in Conversation event in June. Announced just this week, ABC is producing an entire documentary on the rising star called Jelly Roll: Save Me set to premier on May 30th. He’s booked for a big performance at the ACM Awards Thursday night (5-11), though he’s not nominated for anything. Jelly Roll was the indisputable winner of the controversial 2023 CMT Awards when he walked away with three trophies. But with the success of that song and now his new single “Need a Favor,” Jelly Roll has decided to go full blown country, and both the industry and the media are embracing the performer to a degree we haven’t seen for a rising star in years. “Son of a Sinner” was one of the only country-ish songs on Jelly Roll’s 2021 album Ballads of the Broken. His new album Whitsitt Chapel is set to be released on June 2nd, and will be his first full foray into country music after the country single “Son of a Sinner” hit #1 and was Certified Platinum. Former rap and hick-hop artist Jelly Roll is poised to become one of the biggest artists in country music in the coming weeks, months, and years.
