Although performing since 2003 and hitting into the rap world, Jellh Roll hit it big and became mainstream in 2022 thanks to a pair of singles, "Son of a Sinner" and "Need a Favor." He ended up winning multiple Country Music Television (CMT) Awards in 2023 and also was named Best New Artist at the Country Music Association (CMA) Awards.
 
He is also a mutli-time Grammy nominee. Jelly Roll has several number one hits in multiple genres as well.
 
Like Jelly Roll, Post Malone covers multiple genres as well. Born Austin Richard Post, he is a rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and guitarist. He has gained distinction and acclaim for his blending of various genres including hip hop, pop, R&B, trap, and country.
