I'm with Dom on this Ben.
There are poor people who have every excuse in the world available, but don't lead criminal lives.
Poor whites? Jelly Roll versus JD Vance. 40 stints in prison v Yale Law and the Marines.
My wife is from a town of 200 in Iowa. There were some poor people, but decent people, only one career druggie dysfunctional who remains that way to this day.

And Ben, the biggest questions in my mind...
If he did 40 stints in prison selling drugs, how many people OD'd or died on those drugs?
If they did, are they acceptable collateral damage, sacrificed to the glory achieved by Jelly Roll, the celebrity?

If his particular drugs killed nobody, he contributed to an enterprise and degeneracy that has killed hundreds of thousands.

Lastly,
When Jelly Roll peaks and starts down the backside of his career, will he stay clean?


Well the topic was the use of AI in a movie , not really who likes Jelly Roll
I don't know Jelly Roll , So how would I know if I would like him ?
He seems alright from interviews I've heard on him. Probably stay clean , he's 40 now and grown up , He states in songs and interviews he hates his past as a violent drug dealer
Lol, but the movie was about his drug dealing past. Fuel that back story

Id rather somebody who steals cars and picks wallets, without harm..

He left a long trail of hurt dealing .

He's what makes the world dangerous to live in, why kids in playground get shot by accident. Why people of, why mothers kose their sins and daughters.

Then we celebrate by paying him to tell us about it

You dint see ANY problem with it?

I'm in no position to judge Jelly Roll from my violent past , numerous past regrets . I see no problem on a man that has turned his life around thru music. But lets touch on AI , its taken over about everything , like it or not .

We’re all built from the same dust and dreams,
Different roads, but the same means.
