Toddler loses it when Jelly Roll song plays — then country star says it’s the ‘cutest’
Singer and rapper Jelly Roll has been around the music world for a couple of decades but has recently taken the country side of tunes by storm since making the transition from hip-hop.
And he’s found a major fan in the form of an Indiana toddler who went bonkers when she heard his music, 99.5 WKDQ reported.
On Oct. 28, Janeen Hurley posted a video on Facebook of her granddaughter going crazy when she heard the artist’s hit song “Need a Favor.” While her grandmother says in the caption that she personally isn’t a fan of the singer, her granddaughter clearly has enough fandom to fill an entire auditorium.
The young fan’s mother, Tiffany Appell, shared the video on her Instagram page and said she had been trying to get the video to the artist himself, who then commented on the adorableness.
“Omg this might be the single cutest video I’ve ever seen,” the “Save Me” singer wrote.
“She loves your music! Need a favor is definitely her favorite song though,” Appell responded.
Jelly Roll’s debut country music album “Whitsitt Chapel” was released June 2 and showcased his vocal versatility. The artist, formally known as Jason Bradley DeFord, has been around since 2003 when he made an impact on hip-hop and rap. Recently, he was nominated for five Country Music Association Awards, including Single of the Year, New Artist of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year, Biography says.
