Jelly Roll’s wife, Bunnie Xo, just posted a video on her Instagram that said, “I went to jail today . . . willingly.” They got to leave after making their visit. But they cheered up a lot of inmates while they were there. This was in Little Rock, Arkansas at the Pulaski County Detention Center. As soon as Jelly and Bunnie walked in, the room erupted in cheers. Jelly got to tell jokes, and even sing “Save Me”, although it was hard to hear him because everyone else in the room was singing along. Bunnie said, “Today was absolutely chicken soup for the soul . . . To be able to bring smiles to their faces at probably one of the lowest times of their lives means everything to me. And they all had the best personalities. I have to say, the most attractive thing about my husband is his heart.” It’s awesome to see Jelly in the middle of a hugely successful tour . . . with the number one album on the Billboard 200 . . . and still taking time out to visit a jail to give back to those who are struggling.

I love the fact now it is one of the most loved musics in the whole wide world. I’m just proud to say that we’ve still got Country music, we still love it, and they’re still calling it Country music, even if it sounds more Rock and Pop. Country music’s going to always exist in one form or another. I’m going to see to it as long as I live.”
