Together, they built a foundation that felt both heart-wrenching and hopeful.

Winning Streak is so powerful because it is so immediate. The song is more than just about one person’s struggles—it’s about anyone who has ever felt a sense of loss or fought to change their life for the better.
That brilliant balancing act of passion and vulnerability is in full force in Guilty, a song that transforms from struggle to love and devotion. Even as Winning Streak finds a way out of the personal, Guilty (a soulful, profoundly personal confession of unconditional love) is a place where one’s demons make a home. The slow-burning melody and heartfelt lyrics make it an emotional anthem that showcases Jelly Roll’s more vulnerable side.
