Jelly Roll Recently Revealed He Was Sick

Jelly Roll recently performed a run of shows at iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball concert tour. On December 12, the “Need A Favor” singer admitted to feeling under the weather after playing a show in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

“Thank you Philly- that might have been the sickest I’ve been on stage in my life, but y’all made me feel so good! Love y’all- thank y’all,” he wrote on X.

While he appears to still be sick, Jelly Roll is still crushing things career-wise. He is currently sitting at the top of the Mediabase country chart with “Save Me,” his duet with Lainey Wilson, for the second consecutive week.

This marks his third No.1 at country radio in 2023 and with that, he tied Luke Combs and Morgan Wallen for the male artists to have the most No.1 singles on the Mediabase chart this year, according to U.S. Radio Updater on X.

In the new year, Jelly Roll will hit the ground running with a brand new single at country radio. Chris Owen, a country radio insider, reported that his new single will be “Halfway to Hell” from his debut country record, Whitsitt Chapel. The song was co-written by Jelly Roll with Jessie Jo Dillon, Matt Jenkins, and Jesse Frasure.
