With his song “Son of a Sinner,” Jelly Roll rose to stardom in the country music genre, although his career began in a completely other musical genre.
The Grammy-nominated artist wasn’t always a country music performer; in fact, a rap or hip-hop song was the first to ever win him the aforementioned honor.
On June 25, 2020, Jelly Roll dropped the track “Save Me,” taken from his studio album Self-Medicated.
The American country music artist Lainey Wilson worked with him on the official remix of the song, which was released on May 12, 2023, as the second single from his album Whitsitt Chapel. Wilson is currently nominated for three prizes at the upcoming CMT prizes. This collaboration propelled him to success.Speaking about his song, Jelly Roll said, “It’s a little bit of a surprise for me. I don’t typically post these simple acoustic videos, but I felt that this song’s writing had a deeper meaning and that you all needed to see some of the more sensitive aspects of the music industry.
