At the Barefoot Country Music Festival in New Jersey, Jelly Roll delivered a deeply emotional moment during his performance of “I Am Not Okay.” Midway through the song, he noticed a young girl in the front row holding a handmade sign that read, “Jelly Roll, my Mom-Mom died last August.
She wrote your lyrics in her journal. If she could, she would be here.” Reading the sign, Jelly Roll’s voice broke, and he stopped singing for a moment, tears welling in his eyes. He pointed to the girl, sharing a quiet, emotional connection that touched everyone present.
