His past may serve as a cautionary tale, but Jelly Roll (real name: Jason Bradley DeFord) takes solace in knowing his present-day has become a motivator for many. “Awards and accolades can’t compare to someone telling me how my music helped them,” the singer, 39, tells Us. “Music granted [me] purpose and enabled me to reach people. I hope my story inspires them to find whatever that is for them.” Jelly Roll reflects on his recent incredible run before hitting the road for the Beautifully Broken Tour, kicking off Aug. 27.
