Eric Benét Calls Jelly Roll Out for Political Silence at Grammys
Eric Benét posted a video slamming Jelly Roll for not weighing in on political issues backstage at the 2026 Grammys, criticizing him for praising faith while avoiding political commentary. The piece recalls Jelly Roll’s earlier Grammys moment with a Bible in hand and his remark that he doesn’t discuss politics, as well as Benét’s follow‑up response urging Christians to speak out against hate and injustice. Jelly Roll had won three Grammys that night and had said he would address political topics, but has not elaborated since.
