Jelly Roll Brings Out His Inner Preacher Again At The IHeartRadio Music Awards: Awards shows can be hit-and-miss, but when Jelly Roll is expected to be on site, they are definitely "don't miss." The country star was up for a few awards at the IHeartRadio Music Awards, and scored two with Best New Artist (Pop) and Best new Artist (Country). While he's always fun to watch when he performs, his acceptance speeches are arguably better. "I never would have dreamed I would be one of the voices coming through your radio, and to be the Best New Country Artist and represent country music, and the Best New Pop Artist. You don’t know what this means to a kid like me! I was thinking about it. What does it mean when a guy like me gets the opportunity to be the new pop artist of the year at iHeartRadio’s awards? It means that God will always use the least likely messenger with the biggest message every single time! You can take it to the bank, baby!" If the music thing doesn't work out, Jelly has a future as a hellfire-and-brimstone preacher.

Eric Church Unveils Whiskey JYPSI Explorer Series: Eric Church's side hustle as a distiller continues. Church and Outsiders Spirits has announced the release of its all-new Whiskey JYPSI Explorer Series. According to Outsiders co-founder Raj Alva, "Our first launch was an ultra-premium product. This next one is going to be more accessible. It’s unique because it’s going to be finished using wood from across the globe. That’s why we called it Explorer.” Almost a year ago, Church and Outsiders launched their brand with the high-end whiskey that was price-pointed at $199 a bottle, but as Alva said, this next batch is more accessible (read: affordable) for whiskey fans. Whiskey JYPSI’s Explorer is priced at $69.99 and is available now in select liquor stores across Tennessee with more markets to follow and online.
