What a straight forward and a heart touching message. I don't really know Jelly Roll, but now you've gained a listener a fan and you really knocked the door on each person who listened to this awakening message.

Jason has earned all my respect for doing this. My dad passed from fentanyl on March 18th, 2020. I was 19, for 17 and a half years of my life he was not a drug addict and he was the best dad i could ever ask for. He was my best friend and now heās gone because of fentanyl and shitty people. Godbless jelly roll.

His testimony made me burst into tears...what a beautiful way to transmute his troubled past and experiences in order to help all of us because I too learned just how easy it is to fall, thought that would never could never be me and lo and behold the universe let me have it and made me realize I wasn't better than anyone else or someone to look down on people w addiction but just how easy I could become one. Bless you For your heartfelt testimony.

I donāt normally ever leave/make commentsā¦ howeverā¦ THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PUBLIC SPEAKING MOMENTS I have ever seen/heard! Jelly Roll, I honestly believe that a āGreat American Politicianā is someone like youā¦ like us! The type of person that has overcame their adversities with TRIUMPH and turned their lives into more than just success. You actually utilize your platform in the correct manner; which makes you MUCH BETTER than a politicianā¦ A Revolutionary Activist! Thank you for existing, brother!
