Jelly Roll just did something huge in New York City. He performed at a giant party to help beat cancer. He played almost all of his biggest songs for the crowd and even told everyone he felt super nervous. This was not just any show. It was a special night that raised millions of dollars for a very important cause.
The party was for the T.J. Martell Foundation. This group has been raising money for cancer research for fifty whole years and was started by a dad who lost his son to leukemia. Jelly Roll flew all the way from his tour in Europe to be there. He played a long set with his hits and even some old hip-hop songs. The night was a giant success, raising over two million dollars to help scientists fight cancer.
