Let’s see why this beloved artist was missing from the spotlight. Here’s what happened:
A Star Was Missing
The 2024 People’s Choice Country Awards took place on September 26, and it was a night filled with excitement.
Jelly Roll, who wasnominatedfor an impressive seven categories, was mentioned during the ceremony by none other than MGK (Machine Gun Kelly).
MGK took home the award forCrossover Song of 2024and gave a shout-out to Jelly Roll in his acceptance speech, which only highlighted his absence even more.
Fans might have expected to see him strutting down thered carpetor performing live, but instead, they were left wondering: where’s Jelly Roll?
Well, the answer is pretty straightforward—he was hard at work!
Jelly Roll is currently on hisBeautifully Broken Tour, which kicked off last month to great fanfare.
On the night of the awards, he was performing at the TD Garden in Boston, bringing his energetic show to life for a packed audience.
Touring can be a grueling job, and Jelly Roll’s commitment to his fans is evident in his dedication to his performances.
After Boston, he’s set to hit stages in New York and New Jersey, so we can see that his busy schedule played a big role in his absence from theawards.
While some might see award shows as the pinnacle of success, Jelly Roll seems to prioritize connecting with his fans through live music, and that’s a big part of what makes him so relatable.
Jelly Roll’s Cameo Adds Country Flair toTulsa KingSeason 2
In season 2 ofTulsa King, Jelly Roll makes a memorable appearance that brings an authentic country touch to the series.
The country rapper, known for his breakthrough hit “Son of a Sinner” and multiple award wins, appears as himself in the second episode.
During a humorous scene at Bodhi’s dispensary, Even Higher Plane, Jelly Roll interacts with Dwight Manfredi (played by Sylvester Stallone) who amusingly mistakes him for a janitor, calling him “Jellyfish.”
The playful moment culminates in Jelly Roll performing his emotional track “I Am Not Okay” inside a recording booth newly installed at the dispensary.
Jelly Roll’s music is a perfect fit forTulsa King’s Western vibe, with another of his songs, “Get By,” being used in the season’s promotional trailer.
His lyrics, which explore themes of hardship and strength, align with Dwight’s personal struggles, making his cameo and music an impactful addition to the show.
Jelly Roll Unveils Upcoming Album Beautifully Broken
Moreover, Jelly Roll is gearing up for the release of his 10th studio album,Beautifully Broken, set to drop on October 11.
The album will feature hit singles such as “I Am Not Okay” and “Liar,” along with the newly released track “Get By,” which has also been selected as the anthem for the 2024 College Football Season by ESPN.
In line with his ongoing philanthropic efforts, Jelly Roll has pledged to donate the net proceeds from pre-orders of the album on his website to organizations that support mentalhealthand addiction recovery.
Reflecting on the purpose behind his music, he shared in an interview that he now focuses on creating songs with meaning, like the track “Winning Streak.”
He emphasizes that financial gain is no longer his motivation.
Highlights from the 2024 People’s Choice Country Awards
Even though Jelly Roll wasn’t there to steal the show, the 2024 People’s Choice Country Awards was still a star-studded event.
Hosted by the ever-charismaticShania Twain, the night was filled with amazing performances from artists like Kane Brown, Miranda Lambert, War and Treaty, andKelsea Ballerini.
