Jelly Roll Opens Up About Duet With Eminem: “The Coolest Moment of My Career”

Jelly Roll, a longtime fan of Eminem, recently lived out a dream when he joined the rap legend for a special duet on NBC’s Live From Detroit: The Concert at Michigan Central. But before stepping on stage, he discovered the admiration was mutual.
In an interview on The Howard Stern Show, Jelly Roll revealed that Eminem’s manager personally approached him during a concert in Detroit last year. “We’re all hanging out backstage, and I’m just like, ‘Hey, does Marshall even know who I am?’” Jelly recalled. “He’s like, ‘Yeah, that’s why I’m here, man. Marshall loves you. I wanna get y’all together.’”
Fast forward to the taping of the Detroit special, Eminem’s team reached out again—this time with a direct request: they wanted Jelly Roll to sing the Aerosmith “Dream On” sample from Eminem’s iconic track “Sing for the Moment.”
“They called back and was like, ‘Eminem wants to know if you would sing a song with him,’” Jelly said. “I get goosebumps up my body. I was like, ‘Dude, I’m so in.’”
Despite his excitement, Jelly admitted to being nervous during the performance. “It definitely wasn’t my best — you could see the nerves on my face. This song did a lot for me in dark moments of my life, too. I’m a lifelong fan.”
He went on to praise Eminem, calling him “inarguably the greatest rapper that ever lived.” Jelly added, “You’re literally meeting the greatest at his craft.”
The moment was just as special behind the scenes. Jelly’s wife, Bunnie XO, shared a heartwarming video of her husband meeting Eminem for the first time during rehearsals, captioned: “When the goat meets the GOAT.”
Days later, Jelly reflected on the experience with Entertainment Tonight. “When I think about the coolest moments of my career, right now at the top, there has to be this thing that I got to go sing with Eminem in Detroit,” he said. “It was unreal.”

TRUMP VS. POPE: “Sit down — Mind your own business!”
🔥 TRUMP VS. POPE: “Sit down — Mind your own business!” The Clash of Power and Conscience In the grand halls of the Vatican, a moment unfolded that would challenge the very foundations of power and morality. It was a confrontation between two men whose influence transcended borders: President Donald Trump, the embodiment of political power, and Pope Leo XIV, the moral compass of millions around the globe. This was not just a meeting between a world leader and a spiritual guide; it was a clash of ideologies, a moral reckoning that would reverberate through history. The moment was unexpected, a scene few could have imagined. On one side stood President Trump, known for his unyielding approach to politics and his unwavering commitment to national security. On the other, Pope Leo XIV, a pontiff whose calm demeanor and insistence on peace made him a beacon of moral clarity in a world plagued by conflict. The encounter was set into motion by the growing tension between the United States and Iran, a geopolitical crisis that had the world on edge. The issue had come to a head with a highly publicized event at the White House: a group of evangelical leaders had gathered in the Oval Office to lay hands on the president and pray for his success in confronting Iran. The image was one that immediately sparked global controversy. Was it a legitimate act of faith, or a politically charged spectacle designed to unite the president’s base? Regardless of its intent, the image of a religious group using prayer as a political tool raised uncomfortable questions about the intersection of faith and politics. In the Vatican, Pope Leo XIV could not remain silent. As the leader of the world’s largest religious institution, he saw his duty to speak out against the use of faith to justify political aggression. His words were carefully chosen, but they struck with the force of a spiritual decree: “War is not sacred; only peace is sacred, because it is the will of God.” The Pope’s Challenge The Pope’s statement was not a casual comment; it was a moral rebuke to a world that too often sought to sanctify war. For Pope Leo XIV, the idea that war could be viewed as a divine mandate was anathema to the core teachings of the Catholic Church. His words carried weight far beyond the Vatican. They were a direct challenge to the political forces that sought to wield religion as a tool for justifying violence. The Pope had put the world on notice: peace was not a mere ideal; it was a sacred command. The reaction to the Pope’s statement was swift and divisive. Those who supported Trump saw the Pope’s words as an unwelcome intrusion into matters that should be left to the political realm. They viewed the president’s approach to national security as one that was justified by the pressing need to protect the nation’s interests, even if it meant engaging in military conflict. To them, the Pope’s call for peace seemed naïve, disconnected from the realities of global power dynamics….
