Another user shared a similar sentiment, saying, “He keeps adding reasons to love him. … I hope that sweet man goes to every concert he can.”

“Jelly roll might not be my particular taste in Music, but I’ve never heard a word come out his mouth I didn’t like,” another said. “That man is all heart.”

Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, has been on the rise since he scooped up three CMT Awards in April.

In his speech after winning one of the awards, the singer said, “I don’t know what you’re going through, and I don’t know what you’ve been through, but I know you can overcome it.”

“When got something for you, nothing can get in the way.”

The singer is currently on his “Backroad Baptism” tour.
