Jelly Roll’s Masterplan for First Career No. 1 Album Includes an Awesome Act of Philanthropy

Just last year, Jelly Roll released his ninth studio album Whitsitt Chapel which featured collaborations with Struggle Jennings, Yelawolf, and even Lainey Wilson. Gaining praise from country music and fans over songs like “Need a Favor” and “Save Me”, it appears Jelly Roll is wasting no time as he prepares to release his newest album, Beautifully Broken, in a few months. And wanting to make it a historic moment in his career, the singer recently asked fans to help him land his first No. 1 album while also helping those in need.

Besides his talents on stage, Jelly Roll continues to grow his fanbase thanks to his honesty. Not remotely afraid to open up about his struggles with drugs and law enforcement, the singer turned his life around to become one of the top names in country music. And with Jelly Roll sharing that his new album will hit shelves on October 11th, the country star asked fans for a little help.
