Update 7/2724:Jelly Roll made it to Flint today.

Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson is working with his team to bring superstar singer and rapper Jelly Roll to Flint.

As we previously reported, the music star was said to be returning to Flint on Saturday, July 27th, 2024 for the special occasion. However, Jelly Roll will be headlining the Tallboys N' Tailgates music festival in Midland later that night.

Sheriff Swanson informed a fellow Townsquare Media affiliate this morning that he's currently unable to confirm Jelly Roll's attendance at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new music studio at the Genesee County Jail, as they do not yet know which airport Jelly Roll will be flying into.

However, the Sherrif's team is actively working with Jelly Roll's to make the ribbon cutting ceremony happen.
