It makes life easier to just enjoy what you like and forget about labels.

Some wisdom in this thread. I learned this as a DJ at KCPI in the vinyl days when we got new stacks of random promos in weekly. Discovering new music I liked back then was a quest that I still pursue to this day.

I haven't dove deeply into Jelly Rolls' music and from what I've heard it's not at the top of the list. But it doesn't bother me if it's called Country, or if Jelly Roll becomes (or already is) the new face of Nashville. Or if he had some great story overcoming obstacles and testified at Congress. All that matters is do I like his music

Now if someone gave me a ticket to his concert, I'm guessing I'd enjoy myself as obviously he's a good entertainer.

But even so, you'll still be hearing Junior Brown or Dale Watson pumping through the Cerwin Vegas in the shop while I'm under a car, not Jelly Roll.
