Jelly Roll bought a 500-acre plot of land . . . and he got emotional talking about it on Instagram. He first talked about growing up and having a safe space when he went to his uncle’s farm. That’s where he learned all his, “traditional Southern values.” But one day he asked his dad, “How come we never got a farm?” And Jelly’s dad said, “Son, that’s probably one of the mistakes I regret the most, is that I didn’t buy dirt . . . they’re never gonna make no more of it. And if you don’t listen to no advice from me, buy dirt. Go get you some land.” That’s when Jelly thanked his fans for giving him such an incredible gift. He said, “Thank you all for just changing my life, man. Generational curses were broke because of y’all. I’m standing on it. And I hope that inspires one of y’all to do the same thing.” At a couple points in the video, he has to stop filming because he’s so overcome with emotion. That’s powerful stuff. It’s great to see Jelly have so much success, but still be so honest and humble about where he came from.
