"I got my fourth No. 1 today, Sly," Jelly Roll said. "I got my fourth No. 1 on the radio this morning."

"I thought it was a joke until I met Eminem himself. I thought I was being joked," Jelly Roll said. "I even know Eminem’s manager. He’s a friend of mine. He’s really good to me. I was like, ‘Paul, don’t play.’ He was like, ‘I swear.’ And as soon as I met Eminem, it was like the coolest moment ever, man."
During the event, which aired Sunday night, Jelly Roll tried to stay calm but was "giddy like a child" throughout the performance.
