To all of the ppl commenting this is the first time hearing jelly roll. You're in for a treat. Once you go down this rabbit hole you're never coming out. Get em jelly!
Jelly Roll is FINALLY getting his recognition. He's starting to really blow up. He's a reformed drug dealer. Went to jail. Turned his life around. Jelly raps and sings. "Fall in th fall" you can really see he's got soul! But he really is so humble. Suffers from anxiety, depression, self loathing like the majority of us and he raps alot about that. He's also struggled with his weight and is very open about that. He's also really funny. He's 100% independent!! No record deal and he just put out a country album that's actually getting played on country music stations which almost never happens unless you do have that deal. I'm proud of him. Been following Jelly for years and to see how diverse he is in his music. How all he makes his into making his daughters life better and taking care of his family. He's good people as we say haha
Hit the nail on the head with that comment ^ Been listening to Jelly for well over a decade now. Trust me everything Jellyroll has made is nothing short of great! If you aren't familiar with Jelly then do yourself a favor & checkout each of his albums. Even if you do not think you like rap I bet you will love all his music. You can thank me later, 😉
His depression and anxiety is what’s led to his weight issues, his storytelling in his music has helped me and I know many others overcome our own struggles and drug addictions. His song with Struggle Jennings “Glitter” is what truly pushed me to overcome my addiction. Listened to that song damn near on repeat and all his and struggles songs all day for months till I was past that shit. The fact he sings about his past and the fucked up shit he’s done touches you in a personal way and makes you truly feel artists are just people like us, and that helps.
@@beckwith1107 Well said Hookem! And I'm truly happy you overcame your addictions! It's amazing how music can help your mindset. It controls your feelings. If you're filling your head with garbage you'll act like garbage. If you fill it with PMA (Positive Mental Attitude) you'll emulate those feelings!
I'm right there with you homie, especially if they've ever heard anything from his early days before he tapped into this side of his talent and changed his ways.
The US Tennessee accent is actually directly derived from Scotland / Ireland and the people who moved here from there. So that "Northern-Southern Country" can strike a person from the UK directly in the soul.
I have to actually put effort into not crying when I hear this song. Only other song that does that is I'm so Lonesome I Could Cry by Hank Williams Sr. The emotion and realness is almost overpowering .
Before I even watch the video I want to say I'm such a huge fan of this dude and his music! He has so much range, not just with his voice but his music style in general. He can go from super twangy country to keeping up with Tech N9ne rapping. He's an incredible talent and deserves way more attention than he gets. I'm going on a jelly roll binge after watching this.
yeeeeess back to the start with lil wyte to this down here with jesse witley (son of legendary keith whitley) and little wyte as well and then you got these hes got such a range of genres he covers love some jelly!
@@brieannaperry3362 id loooove to smoke a blunt joint anything with jelly and just be like watcha thinkin man??? and see what comes out i bet! ive smoked with other famous people but jelly self made man i remember his 10 min freestyle got em famous like 10 yrs ago gradually famous lol
This is the song that got me hooked on Jelly Roll, and I have not looked back since. This song resonates with me as I have felt this way many times in my life. Jelly Roll is an amazing artist and I would love to see him live someday. He did a concert and sold out the Ryman Auditorium last month. What a show and what a humble and kind gentleman he is. Great reaction to such a deep meaningful song.
Been rockin with Totem over 10 yrs and this man finally getting the recognition he deserves, he’s always wrote great hooks/chorus and wasn’t afraid to use his voice. He’s got an amazing team behind him too as well, shout out to David Ray and Still Mathews!
thats okay! we can blow up his views hes got a nice fan base i found em on a 10min freestyle like 10 yrs ago haha! hes came such a long way since then!
This song always gets in my feels.. I've never been into drug but being someone who has manic depressive bipolar been on amd off meds and struggled with severe depression.. this song speaks to me and about me just a broken damaged man
I’ve listened to this guy for a long time. I can’t tell you the feeling I get when I see when someone’s heart breaks over this song. And you definitely wear your feelings on your face. It’s a touching song for sure. Well done
Hes sang the chorus on most of the songs dating back to him and lil whytes partnership. Glad to see he came out of his bubble and is giving us all these beautiful full singing songs now. Love his voice
I've followed jelly from his 10 minute freestyle in 2010 until now, and I can tell you he's an artist not just rapper !! He's been thru a lot and I'm glad he's getting the recognition he deserves !! 👍👍
Jelly is criminally underrated as a singer. This song and Son of a Sinner are finally letting people see his voice and understand how truly talented the man is. I cant WAIT to see his Debut on the Opry. He's a Nashville native and its just so damn awesome to see him finally gain so much traction.
Coming from a dj with epilepsy this song is so emotional on how I feel sometimes so when I don't feel good and depressed I at this song wich shows I'm not alone n helps me calm n relax so I love to thank Jelly Roll for a great song that helps me calm n relax n helps have less seizures so good n relaxing sounding
Jelly Roll is from the south, he has been a Rapper for quite some time, now he told me he wants to siing more and get in shape. Thanks for doing the reaction Beth.
Jelly Roll is so real, and I don't say that about many artists. I remember seeing a tour video, where he described why he is so adamant about seeing fans. He met a woman who lost her kid, and he was also kinda a big dude. She hugged him and said, "I knew you would feel like him". Jelly cries every damn time he talks about it. THAT is the artist you stumbled upon. A real dude.
His music, especially thing so has helped me through some of toughest times I’ve had to deal with, the second I hear this song I have to sing it at the top of my lungs while crying like a baby lol
This guy is a lyrical genius when it comes to getting under your feelings and making you see what he is talking about he has that ability white no one else there's only a very few artists in any other genre that can do that and this man cannot only move from being a rapper but he can go to other genres of music within the same song and pull it together and make an instant classic. We love the big guy he's been through the same struggle and helps us get through our day because of the day-to-day grind that people like us and him deal with

Ooooooo you NEEEEED to check this chica out. (Think Tyler Childers had a sister😏) Morgan Wade “The Night” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MBvje6HlgXk.html
2 weeks late but Jelly ..... Man, wrote a song a while back that just jives with me to my core. name of the song is "Same Asshole" the line of something like for all the good that ive done, everyone remebers only the bad.
I know this is a sad song BUT during the Covid lockdown I heard this for the first time and at 64 I got off the drugs I’d been on since I was 16. It’s been a long, hard haul, but I am 2 years completely clean So thanks Jelly!!!!!
Very cool I am a fan of his and I just clicked on this video when I saw him but very good song I feel this song just hits all the right notes and gots the right felling of realness
That look on her face when she first hears it, you can tell she was not expecting him to sing like that. This is one of my all time favorite song ever, especially as a ex-drug addict, this song just touches my soul.
Been listening to Jelly for well over a decade now. Trust me everything Jellyroll has made is nothing short of great! If you aren't familiar with Jelly then do yourself a favor & checkout each of his albums. Even if you do not think you like rap I bet you will love all his music. You can thank me later, 😉 RIP Worm aka Jimmy 'Millions' Womack 💔 Still heartbroken & can't get over your passing!! 😢
This song is interesting. I've now listened to you analyze the way he sings, someone analyze the actual music itself including the lyric line, and a therapist analyze the words and the feelings being spot on when trying to leave addiction behind. But it all just started with listening to the song and letting it make me feel. Once I do the rounds I feel like I understand the song in entirely different ways, so this was great.
This is a sad but great song. Jelly has lived a life for sure. He has a great life though. Super talented human being. You need to delve into more of his stuff.
I first heard this at The Blue Ridge Rock Festival. I was pretty drunk and high (legal in Virginia). Hear it while in the porta potty and started crying like a baby. Fun times. Was an amazing festival.
You got cought up in the emotion of this song you felt what he ment you to feel ...I absolutely love Jelly Roll ..you feel the music again ...so lost in our society today with the music put out now on Top 40
Ah I hadn't heard this in ages & the fact I'm bawling at 7am would be why ha. I relate to this so hard & like one of my best mates is losing her battle with cancer & I'm slipping after years of sobriety. Tell you what though, it does bring quite the intensity to the voice.
I have said the exact same thing as you just said Beth....He is a singer. That smokey bluesy tone he has is sooo hard to get and he does it with ease. He does an amazing cover of Marshall Tucker Bands Cant You See that is worthy of a listen as well.
This is the first time I've heard of jelly roll, man he's got a awesome voice. If he was to to a duo with someone it would have to be with rag n bone man or black stone cherry 😁
He sang "simple man" with shinedown at a festival a couple weeks ago. That was something pretty special. They have a behind the scenes section before the actual performance. I highly recommend that.
Jellyroll 615 baby. Independent artist no label necessary. If he was under a label ppl would've known him a decade ago. But would he still be the artist he is today? Maybe but prob not. Like my guy said if you are just introduced to his music you been blessed. Check out the song and video "nothing left at all" and go from there. Him and Tom mcdonald all I listen to.
🙋♂️Hello Beth Roars, I will tell you that I constantly watch your videos and your comments are very explanatory. I congratulate you, you do very well ... If you like music in Spanish ... I suggest you listen to Manuel García, it could be the song "Hablar de ti" ... I hope you have a great week .. .. Good luck and greetings from Chile ....🇨🇱
Anyone else scroll through comments lookin for jelly to praise her kind words the man is so humble and I have seen him comment on alot of people's reactions to him
This is a great song it's like he's singing about my life minus the drinking and smoking. Because of the line I've spent so long living in hell for 10 years that was how I felt like I was living in hell
