À propos de cet audio
Jelly Roll, or Jason Bradley DeFord, has had a whirlwind week marked by big headlines and meaningful moments. The most biographically significant development is his Grand Ole Opry initiative. On August 12, Parade reported that Jelly Roll and the Opry are launching a partnership to raise funds for the Judge Dinkins Educational Center, an organization dedicated to helping at-risk youth—a deeply personal cause to him, since the center’s namesake once prosecuted Jelly Roll in his troubled youth. In a full-circle twist, he and the same judge now work side by side offering hope to kids in tough situations. To kick off this effort, Jelly Roll will headline two major Opry concerts on September 22, bringing along friends such as Bailey Zimmerman and Graham Barham. A portion of ticket sales from these and all his Opry shows through September 2026 will benefit this initiative, as well as the Buddy DeFord Charitable Fund, named after his late father. This move blends celebrity, redemption, and community impact—all signature threads in Jelly Roll’s ongoing narrative, as Parade described it.
In live music news, CountryMusicOnTour.com and Parade have spotlighted the continued momentum of his Beautifully Broken Tour, which remains a hot ticket in multiple cities. His recent Chicago show sold out, creating buzz, and as reported by CountryMusicOnTour.com, he just performed an intimate set for SiriusXM ahead of launching new tour dates. Social media has been awash with clips from these shows and particularly affectionate backstage moments with his wife, Bunnie XO, fueling their ongoing fan-favorite status as a couple, as Parade covered just days ago.
Career-wise, MusicRow Weekly notes that Jelly Roll’s single Heart of Stone is still climbing charts, keeping his name in rotation both digitally and on the airwaves. Meanwhile, he also just landed a slot performing with Gwen Stefani at Naval Station Norfolk for the military—grabbed headlines September 10, per CaptionBios.com. In industry news, he’s a featured collaborator on Amen, a track with Shaboozey and rising star Kevin Powers, which underscores his versatility and influence in the country and pop-hip hop crossover space.
Estimates of his net worth currently hover around four million dollars as of 2025, per ImpactWealth.org, a testament to his hustle, hit-making, and cross-genre pull. There do not appear to be any major controversies or negative stories regarding Jelly Roll in the past week. Professional triumphs, philanthropy, and family continue to define his public persona with every recent appearance, performance, and post.
