JELLY ROLL RELEASES NEW SINGLE, “I AM NOT OKAY”

The Award-Winning Singer/Songwriter Performed The First Single Off His Upcoming New Album Live On The Howard Stern Show

12 JUNE 2024 (TORONTO, ON) – Multi-genre phenomenon Jelly Roll today released his new single, “I Am Not Okay” off his forthcoming new album, expected later this year. “I Am Not Okay” marks the first official release of new music for the Nashville native singer/songwriter since his record-breaking debut Country album, Whitsitt Chapel, which was released last June (6/2).

Co-written by Jelly Roll, Taylor Phillips, Ashley Gorley and Casey Brown, “I Am Not Okay” follows Jelly’s Grammy-nominated multi-week #1, “Save Me,” and his last single, “Halfway to Hell”, which earlier this week claimed the top spot on the country radio charts, marking the CMA, ACM, and CMT winning artist’s fourth consecutive #1 at Country radio and 5th career #1. Earlier today, Jelly visited The Howard Stern Show to talk more about the new song and the impact he has already seen from fans, as well as his experience this week of announcing news of his #1 and the new single from his live performance at Nissan Stadium, where he co-hosted CMA FEST’s ABC television special set to air on September 25th.

“I Am Not Okay” Lyrics:

I am not okay
I’m barely gettin’ by
I’m losin’ track of days
And losin’ sleep at night

I am not okay
I’m hangin’ on the rails
So if I say I’m fine
Just know I’ve learned to hide it well

I know I can’t be the only one
Who’s holdin’ on for dear life
But God knows, I know
When it’s all said and done

I’m not okay
But it’s all gonna be all right
It’s not okay
But we’re all gonna be all right

I woke up today
I almost stayed in bed
Had the devil on my back
And voices in my head

Some days it ain’t all bad
Some days it all gets worse
Some days I swear I’m better off
Layin’ in that dirt

I know I can’t be the only one
Who’s holdin’ on for dear life
But God knows, I know
When it’s all said and done

I’m not okay
But it’s all gonna be all right
It’s not okay
But we’re all gonna be all right

Gonna be all right
Gonna be all right

I know one day
We’ll see the other side
The pain’ll wash away
In a holy water tide
And we all gonna be all right

I know I can’t be the only one
Who’s holdin’ on for dear life
But God knows, I know
When it’s all said and done

I’m not okay
But it’s all gonna be all right
It’s not okay
But we’re all gonna be all right

I’m not okay
But it’s all gonna be all right

About

About Jelly Roll

Award-winning, Grammy nominated Nashville native singer/songwriter Jelly Roll (Jason DeFord) debuted Top 3 on the Billboard 200 All Genre Chart and #2 on the Top Country Album charts with his debut Country Album, Whitsitt Chapel (released June 2nd, 2023) – earning the biggest Country debut album in Billboard Consumption Chart history. Following his sweep at the 2023 CMT Music Awards where he earned 3 awards to become the most awarded artist of the night, the Billboard Country Power List Cover star and “country’s ‘most authentic’ new artist” (The New Yorker) received Billboard’s 2023 Breakthrough Award and the People’s Choice Award for Male Country Artist of the Year. Nominated for Best New Artist and Best Duo/Group Performance for “Save Me (with Lainey Wilson)” at the 2024 GRAMMY Awards, along with eight genre-spanning nominations at the 2024 iHeartRadio Awards and a win for best New Country and Pop artist wins, Jelly Roll is one of three artists alongside Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs to have scored three Country Airplay #1s in 2023 and the first to do it with his first three singles. He has earned four consecutive #1s to date at Country radio and is “one of Nashville’s fastest rising stars” (The New York Times). A 4X winner at the 2023 People’s Choice Country Awards and the most nominated male at the 2023 CMA Awards, with five total nominations capturing his first CMA Award for New Artist of the Year, Jelly continues to break boundries. His #1 hit single “Save Me” — a confessional, vulnerable expression of self-doubt— set the stage for his new season of life and took him to new heights including a Platinum certification from the RIAA on the heels of his 28-week reign at No. 1 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart.

Most recently, “Save Me” earned Jelly his first ACM win for Musical Event of the year, and he is set to release new music following his four consecutive #1 singles: “Halfway To Hell,” “Save Me,” “Need A Favor” and “Son of A Sinner.”

Not just an artist but a humanitarian, Jelly Roll continues to resonate with fans on a global scale while racking up numerous milestones – from playing his sold-out hometown show for 18,000 fans at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to donating a recording studio at the juvenile detention center he served in as a teen, to the release of his record-breaking documentary by ABC News, “Save Me” -the most watched music documentary on the platform- to his visits with rehab centers and those incarcerated across the US. Featured by Nightline, GMA, GMA3, The New York Times, LA Times, The Tennessean, Billboard, Variety, American Songwriter, CMT and more, his self-built, unconventional industry rise and unique fan connection has garnered praise from numerous outlets, with Variety noting, “for everyone who’s facing the same struggles, Jelly Roll is their Springsteen,” and American Songwriter echoing, “with a string of accolades and an extremely dedicated following, Jelly Roll has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.”
