Jamal Robert Is Winning Big After American Idol Victory—#1 Hit, Jelly Roll Collaboration, and New Remixes Incoming!

Jamal Roberts Amazes Fans With Jelly Roll Performance

Jamal Robert is having the kind of breakout year artists dream about.

Fresh off his historic win on American Idol 2025, the 21-year-old powerhouse vocalist from Atlanta is already topping charts, signing industry-shaking deals, and dropping hints about hot new remixes that could dominate the summer.

Jamal Roberts & Jelly Roll sing "Liar" and "Unpretty" - American Idol 2025  Finale

His debut single, “First Time”, a brooding, soul-tinged confessional track laced with gospel undertones and R&B grit, rocketed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 just a week after its official release. Critics have hailed the song as “the rawest Idol debut since Kelly Clarkson’s ‘A Moment Like This’.” Fans connected instantly with Jamal’s searing honesty and dynamic range, catapulting him into pop stardom overnight.

But the wins didn’t stop there.

In an exclusive interview with Access Music Weekly, Jamal revealed that country-rap star and breakout hitmaker Jelly Roll personally called to congratulate him—and went one step further. “He was like, ‘Man, your voice hit me in the gut,’” Jamal said, smiling. “‘I see myself in you. Let’s work together. I want to sign you.’”

Now, Jamal is reportedly inking a partnership with Jelly Roll’s emerging label imprint, known for blending country, rock, and hip-hop with messages of pain, healing, and redemption. Sources close to the deal say Jelly Roll wants to mentor Jamal personally—an exciting twist for fans of both artists.

And it gets better.

Jamal also confirmed that he’s teaming up with Jelly Roll’s production team to create remixes of “Liar” and  “Unpretty.” “We’re flipping ‘Unpretty’ into a stripped-down acoustic ballad with a trap-soul beat underneath,” Jamal explained. “It’s about reclaiming identity and finding self-worth—something I struggled with growing up.”

Jelly Roll, whose own music speaks to overcoming addiction, incarceration, and inner demons, has long used his platform to spotlight underdog voices. Jamal, who has been open about his own struggles with anxiety, bullying, and self-doubt before his Idol win, fits that mission perfectly.

Social media is already buzzing with excitement. One fan tweeted, “Jamal Robert x Jelly Roll? That’s the redemption collab I didn’t know I needed!” Another posted a TikTok mashup of “Liar” with Jelly Roll’s “Save Me,” which quickly racked up half a million views.

Industry insiders say Jamal is being courted by multiple labels but that Jelly Roll’s offer stood out for its “authenticity and vision.” And with both artists known for emotionally vulnerable songwriting, fans can expect deep, genre-bending music that speaks to real life.

While there’s no official release date for the remixes yet, Jamal hinted they could drop “before the Fourth of July.” As for a full album? “We’re working,” he said. “I’m in the studio every day. It’s coming sooner than people think.”

From American Idol to the top of the charts and into the arms of a genre-defying music family, Jamal Robert is clearly not just the voice of the year—he’s a voice for a generation.
