Jelly Roll Sits In First (And Last) Place On The Same Billboard Chart

Jelly Roll launched his music career as a hip-hop musician, but it wasn't until he changed things up and began delivering music that was sometimes categorized as country and, in other instances, labeled as rock, that he found great commercial success in the United States. For several years now, the Grammy nominee has straddled the line between those two genres, while continuing to experiment, earning additional wins on some of Billboard's hip-hop and pop-focused rankings.
This week, Jelly shows once again that he's a force to be reckoned with in the rock genre, as he bookends one of Billboard's rock-focused rankings, scoring both the biggest hit and the lowest-ranking tune at the same time.
"Hard Fought Hallelujah" Returns to No. 1
Jelly returns to No. 1 on the Rock Digital Song Sales chart as "Hard Fought Hallelujah," his collaboration with Brandon Lake, jumps back to the top space. The two musicians sat down at No. 5 last frame, but thanks to an almost 29% uptick in pure purchases, "Hard Fought Hallelujah" rockets to the summit once more.
The tune, which Billboard classifies as both rock and Christian in terms of genre, has now led the Rock Digital Song Sales tally for 18 nonconsecutive weeks.
Jelly Roll Occupies the Bottom Spot Too
Jelly fills a pair of spaces on the 15-title ranking, as his own "Liars" reappears. This week, the track breaks back in at No. 15 — the lowest position possible — as it celebrates 44 weeks on the Rock Digital Song Sales chart.
Two of Five No. 1s
"Liars" and "Hard Fought Hallelujah" are two of Jelly's five No. 1s on the Rock Digital Song Sales chart. He first ruled in October 2022 with "Son of a Sinner." The following year, he scored a 14-week champion with "Need a Favor." In August 2024, just months before both "Liars" and "Hard Fought Hallelujah" soared to the summit, Jelly Roll joined MGK (formerly known as Machine Gun Kelly) at No. 1 with "Lonely Road," which debuted in first place.
Throughout his career, 17 tunes crediting Jelly have landed somewhere on the Rock Digital Song Sales chart, and 14 of them have cracked the top 10.
