There are three artists with the name ‘Jelly Roll’

JellyRoll (Artist)
Jelly Roll is an underground rapper from Tennessee. His debut album is entitled The Hate Goes On. He is know for working with artists such as Haystak and the CWB.

Jelly Roll (Producer)
One of America’s most promising producers of the millenium, Jelly Roll’s beats emphasize a sense of funk by focusing on chunky bass lines and plenty of synth. He was first established by Snoop Dogg and his affiliates (Tha Eastsidaz, Doggy’s Angels, Xzibit), along with a number of other artists from East to West including Method Man, Redman, Busta Rhymes, Pharoah Monch, Jadakiss, Olivia and Foxy Brown. Jelly Roll’s diverse musical style includes an infusion of ghetto gospel, strings, winds, funky guitar riffs and off-the-hook percussion. His aesthetic is a progression from the early-’90s G-funk sound pioneered by Dr. Dre, characterized by fat synth bass lines and soulful keys. Furthermore, his productions also tend to make an excellent use of crooning Gs on the choruses to accentuate the soul element. In some of his recent productions, like Xzibit’s “Saturday Night Live”, and Jadakiss’ “Shine” featuring DJ Quik, Jelly brings a sense of laid-back funky soul to the respective artist’s traditionally gangsta rap sound, making instant hits.
