Country star Jelly Roll, who was in and out of jail starting as a teenager, confessed he's 'petrified' of losing his success after struggling for years.
As country star Jelly Roll skyrockets to fame, the musician admits he’s facing mounting pressure to maintain his success. 'I was never afraid of not making it. I'm petrified of losing it,' he told People. 'That is the pressure I feel. I was okay with this thing not working. But since it worked, now I'm petrified of it not working.
’m rounding third on my amends list, and I think when I get there, I’ll feel a little better. I was hitting some stone walls with people that wouldn’t forgive me, and I was like, ‘God, maybe this has something to do with the fact I haven’t forgiven myself either,'' he added. 'I hurt a lot of people. No matter much I’ve changed, they still watch and are mad that I’m successful. I understand that.
The Grammy-nominated country singer has expressed his troublesome past through his soulful lyrics as he desperately sought salvation for his sins. The 'Save Me' crooner is nominated in three major categories at the 2024 CMA Awards this year – male vocalist, album of the year and entertainer of the year. Jelly Roll described his nominations as a 'huge' moment in his music career.
You don’t get no bigger,' he said. 'We went from only being qualified to walk the carpet, didn’t even have a seat for us in the building, to winning new artist of the year. And then to being nominated for the big three. I’m in a category with people that I was watching win CMAs on TV when I was incarcerated. That’s crazy.'
