“I just want to tell you how much I appreciate you and your service. I hope you enjoyed the hell out of tonight,” Jelly Roll continued. “I’ll tell you this, you’ll never buy another ticket to my show. I’m going to get my people with you. You are welcome forever. Thank you.”

I think she’s got one of the best voices in country music, and we’re already friends so it was just such an easy collab.
New Album, WHITSITT CHAPEL

This is therapeutic music. Real music for real people with real problems,” Jelly Roll previously shared in a statement.
The project debuted at No.2 on the Billboard Country Album Chart and in the Top 3 on the Billboard 200 all-genre chart with 90,000 album equivalents.
