Jelly Roll Says He’s Going to “Quit the Music Business”

In a video posted by his wife Bunnie Xo, Jelly Roll celebrated two major milestones that would make any artist feel like they’ve peaked. He said, “I was on Lil Wayne and Eminem’s album in the same year, y’all. I retire. It’s over, y’all. I quit the music business. This is my last tour ever. I can’t do anything cooler.”

And honestly? He might be right.

Jelly Roll, who originally started his career as a rapper, first appeared with Eminem on the “Tobey” remix. Now, he’s featured on Lil Wayne’s brand-new album The Carter VI, on a track called “Sharks” alongside Big Sean.

That’s two GOAT-level co-signs in the same year—and a dream come true for Jelly, who’s now out on the road with Post Malone on the Big A** Stadium Tour.

Retirement? Nah. But a well-earned mic drop? Absolutely.
