This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... he has collaboroated with many big artists and has released albums that have been on the billboard charts. -- Kcwalker93 ( talk) 23:47, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... Haystak & Jellyroll's album Strictly Business made it to 16 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart http://www.billboard.com/artist/303355/haystak/chart?f=324, and 67 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop chart. http://www.billboard.com/artist/303355/haystak/chart?f=333 -- Kcwalker93 ( talk) 23:58, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
So, is he billed as JellyRoll or Jelly Roll ? Both versions are used in this article, but there needs to be a consistent approach to naming (as per WP:NCP). Thanks,

Why is there not more information about Jelly Roll? Where he grew up? How many siblings or does he have siblings? How did he get his start? Has he not wanted to be interviewed? I mean this is Wikipedia. You haven't made it unless you've been interviewed and properly informed on Wikipedia. Right?! 71.206.81.142 ( talk) 02:51, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved to Jelly Roll (singer). There is a broad consensus that this article should be moved somewhere, but no consensus on how to best avoid confusion with Jelly Roll Morton. Jelly Roll (singer) was the second choice of multiple people who otherwise sponsored wildly different suggestions, and also most succinctly distinguishes the subject from Morton. Thus "(singer)" will be provisionally used. ( closed by non-admin page mover) — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mello hi! ( 投稿) 18:41, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
Jelly Roll (rapper) → Jelly Roll (musician) – He records in genres other than rap/hip-hop. The AllMusic bio also lists country, one of his songs is #1 on the Mainstream Rock charts, and this source describes "Son of a Sinner" as a country song.

We're not going to move Cher because Cher Lloyd exists; same idea here.No we're not. Because Cher is much, much more notable than Cher Lloyd. Surely you don't think this bloke is more notable than Jelly Roll Morton? -- Necrothesp ( talk) 13:35, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
Can we agree that the term Vocalist should be a better description of Jason DeFord Aka Jelly Roll? ISoldier92 ( talk) 03:46, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
I don't know if this is anything, but I asked Jelly Roll about this today (not a joke -- starts at 1:56). He prefers "Singer-Songwriter", which isn't typically used per WP:SINGERDAB, but maybe lends credence to "Musician": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg-KVwSzzic&t=117 Captiveofthesun ( talk) 20:09, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

Jelly Roll (singer) → Jelly Roll – Though this article recently experienced a rather sharp increase in page views, even before then (specifically 9 November 2023 when the subject of this article won the CMT award), the article had an average more than 10x more page views than the subjects with a capital "R" combined. With that being said, per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and WP:DIFFCAPS, I believe it is time to give this move request some consideration.

Jelly Roll Morton is still much more notable: As Dekimasu argues above, Jelly Roll Morton is likely primary by long-term significance for the capitalized version. Hameltion ( talk | contribs) 01:56, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
everis an easy bar to clear. He's often any of "Jelly", "Jelly Roll" and "Morton" throughout Alan Lomax's biography Mister Jelly Roll. Hameltion ( talk | contribs) 22:12, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
Not sure if someone vandalized the page or not, but almost all of the award nominations shown for Jelly Roll are actually Lainey Wilson's. The only ones actually belonging to Jelly Roll are the last half-dozen or so. Others are for songs like "Things a Man Oughta Know" and "Wait in the Truck," which Jelly Roll had nothing to do with. This needs to be cleaned up. 2601:18C:4080:3E90:4426:BF9C:DDA0:2B05 ( talk) 08:22, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
I'm trying to understand why the fact that hes been convicted of several felonies and sent to prison multiple times as an adult keeps getting deleted. I'm using the Davidson(Nashville) county clerk as the source. his name date of birth location all matches. I'm leaving out his misdemeanor charges only including what hes been CONVICTED of as an adult. I'm not including any of his convictions as a minor or any arrests that didn't result in a conviction.
