Over the weekend, Jelly Roll rocked his biggest show yet at the Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater in Virginia Beach, Virginia, performing for a sold-out crowd of 22,000 attendees.
Right in the middle of belting out his hit “NEED A FAVOR,” he hit the brakes on his performance when he spotted a fan in the crowd who seemed to be having some health trouble. Quick thinking, he signaled his band to stop playing to tend to the situation.

“We got somebody down right here,” he announced, as captured in videos from the audience. He directed everyone’s attention to the fan and requested that they be provided with some water.
“I’ll stop the show for anybody to make sure they’re safe,” he added. “I don’t care what song I’m singing. I love you, I want you to feel better.”
“In fact, not only do I want you to get some water and feel better, I want you to get some water, feel better, come back and start drinking again,” he added.

This isn’t the first time that Jelly Roll has showed his love and care to his fans. Recently, he visited recovering addicts at Chesterfield County Jail in Virginia. There, he sang renditions of his popular tracks and talked with the inmates in recovery to show that they can overcome addiction and not let it shape their identity.
