Jelly Roll fulfilled a longtime dream when Beautifully Broken debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard 200. And shortly after its release, the “Need a Favor” hitmaker, 39, surprised fans with a deluxe version of the record, featuring collaborations with Halsey, ERNEST, Keith Urban, and more.

Throughout his meteoric rise to fame, Jelly Roll has remained refreshingly candid about his past struggles with addiction. That’s something Keith Urban can relate to, as the “Blue Ain’t Your Color” singer has also publicly battled heavy alcohol and cocaine use.

“Don’t Want To” draws on both artists’ experiences: And just ’cause I ain’t reaching for the bottle / And I ain’t got a smoke between my lips / Oh, just ’cause I ain’t trying to numb my sorrows / With any kind of vice I ain’t tried yet / Don’t mean I don’t want to.

On Oct. 17, Jelly took the stage for the season 3 premiere of Amazon Live, performing hits like “Get By” and Liar.” He also invited several collaborators to join him onstage, including Keith Urban. You can watch their performance of “Don’t Want To” below.

Keith Urban Has Wanted To Work With Jelly For awhile

Beautifully Broken dropped Oct. 11, skyrocketing straight to the top of the Billboard 200. That day, Keith Urban toasted Jelly Roll’s accomplishment with a sweet social media post.

 

“the song might be called ‘don’t want to’ but I’ve been wanting to collaborate with this guy for a looong time,” wrote the four-time Grammy Award winner. “My man – I love playing with ya, love singing with ya, and am just damn grateful to be on this ‘same journey’ with you. You know exactly what I’m talking about !!”

50 YEARS AGO, 7 COLLEGE KIDS STARTED ACTING IN AN 88-SEAT CHURCH BASEMENT. LAST NIGHT, ONE OF THEM HELD HER 3RD TONY. Laurie Metcalf just won Best Featured Actress in a Play at the 79th Tony Awards for her role as Linda Loman in Death of a Salesman — alongside Nathan Lane, directed by Joe Mantello. This is her 3rd Tony. Her 7th nomination. But what she did at Radio City Music Hall wasn’t about the numbers. She stood up there and named 6 people. Not agents. Not producers. Six college friends from Illinois State University who started Steppenwolf Theatre together — in a church basement. Gary Sinise. John Malkovich. Jeff Perry. Terry Kinney. Moira Harris. Al Wilder. “I still consider them family,” she said. “I still draw on lessons I learned from them.” After everything — the Emmys, the Oscar nomination, decades on Roseanne — the first people she thanked were the ones who knew her before any of it mattered. Some things don’t change, even after 50 years.

THEY FIRED HIM ON A TUESDAY. BY SATURDAY, HE WAS SMILING ON A SAILBOAT. Scott Pelley spent 37 years at CBS News. He anchored the Evening News. He reported from war zones. He won dozens of Emmys. And last week, on his new boss’s very first day, he stood up in a staff meeting and said what nobody else would. He told executive producer Nick Bilton he’d “never be welcome here.” He accused CBS chief Bari Weiss of “murdering” 60 Minutes. But what Pelley claimed they asked him to do behind the scenes — that part changes everything. Within 24 hours, he was handed a termination letter. Fired “for cause.” 37 years, gone in a single page. Then Saturday morning, he posted a photo on Instagram. No anger. Just him at the helm of a sailboat, hands on the wheel, American flag behind him, looking out at open water. His only words: “You are the wind in my sails. So deeply grateful.”
