Country music star Jelly Roll revealed he once declined an invitation to meet with rapper and music mogul P Diddy.
During an interview with Tana Mangeau on the CANCELLED podcast, the singer said he was given the opportunity to meet Diddy when he and the rapper were star guests on Jimmy Kimmel.
“I will tell this story, and I’ll probably get in trouble for it. Not harping on it cause it’s a hot topic. But I did Kimmel the day Diddy did Kimmel,” he said.
“This is the first time in my career, ever, where they said, ‘Do you want to meet such-and-such?’ And I said, ‘Yeah,’ and I started walking that way,” he said.
“And as I was getting down the hallway — this is a true story — I said, ‘Nah,’ and went and got back in the car,” he added.
However, Jelly Roll said he became nervous about the meeting after he cracked a joke about Diddy being behind the murder of Tupac.
“I don’t know what it was, and I made a joke at first, I was like, ‘Who don’t wanna meet the guy that got Tupac killed?'” Jelly Roll said.
“Nobody thought that was funny. So I was like, ‘Ooh that’s a bomb.”
“Maybe I shouldn’t go do this anyway.’ So I was already skeptical. Cause I thought I had a funny one.”
“When we were walking, I was like, I don’t know. Very seldom [do] things rub me in a way where I was like, ‘I don’t even know if that’s a picture I want,'” he added.
“I’ve ended up in pictures with people I don’t want to be with.”

As we highlighted earlier this month, the Feds raided Diddy Combs’ LA and Miami mansions as a part of an ongoing sex-trafficking investigation.
Combs left for the Caribbean in his private jet; however, it’s unclear whether he was aboard the jet when it was last tracked to Antigua.
Suge Knight, the music executive serving a 28-year sentence in California state prison for manslaughter, warned embattled hip-hop mogul Sean Diddy Combs his ‘life’s in danger’ because of what he knows.
According to an audio clip obtained by TMZ, Knight warned Diddy that there are people out there who are “going to get you if they can.”
“Your life’s in danger cause you know the secrets, who’s involved in that little secret room you guys are participating in … you know they’re going to get you if they can,” he said.
According to Knight, the accusations against Diddy are bad for the industry.
“It’s a bad day for hip hop, for the culture,” he said.
When I first heard one of his songs, I didn’t even realize it was supposed to be Country.
*shrugs*
Better than some of the crap out there though. At least the messages in what I’ve heard so far are positive, if a bit whiny.
By and large, I like the country songs that Jelly Roll sings such as "Son Of A Sinner". It was a good direction for him and his life seems to have improved greatly since.
Jelly Roll freely admits that he made a lot of bad decisions in his youth and he spent time in prison for them.
He's out of prison now and he'll never be able to get rid of the face tattoos. I do give him credit for making himself a better person.
Thank you posting that! I had never heard of him until I saw this thread and wrote him off immediately based solely on his appearance.

Can Country Rap be far off? (or maybe it’s here already...I don’t need an emetic so I haven’t listened to either)
My mom and I sometimes (still) watch American Idol. Jelly Roll has been on past few days as a celebrity vocal coach.
If hip hop is culture, then it is trash culture.
Jelly Roll regrets his past. He has turned his life around and now walks with Christ. I applaud him for that.
That is the kind of Christian that I am most comfortable with, wild men (and women) who fought and clawed their way to Christ.
Been here for years.....................
Pop and mainstream country are mostly indistinguishable now except for the singer's accents and the subject they are singing about. Evidence: Taylor swift was country until she said 'lose the banjos' and suddenly was a pop star. Easy peasy, theyre the same thing really.
Cultural rot abounds
It's already here, I saw a headline about a country rap artist, but I forgot his name.Country music is dead along with Rock.
In other words; "A good day".
You got the picture. The name is euphemism in old black blues for female parts, so to speak. Sweet jelly roll. Black artists in the 1920s inserted it in their names. Jelly Roll Morton (there is only one of this piano player).
toilet wall rap.

If this Jellyroll thing real country or the modern crap that the Nashville studios have decided to foist on us?
I sometimes think about pointing my speakers out the window and introducing them to Jesus Lizard.
