Jelly Roll’s Daughter Bailee Ann Shares Honest New Song With Fans

Jelly Roll’s 16-year-old daughter, Bailee Ann, is stepping into her own spotlight with a vulnerable new original song that has touched hearts across social media.

Bailee Ann has been surrounded by music her entire life, growing up with her father’s influence as both a songwriter and performer. At just 10 years old, she co-wrote part of Jelly Roll’s emotional track “Tears Could Talk” and even recorded vocals for his 2020 album A Beautiful Disaster.

A Rare Solo Moment

While she has occasionally joined Jelly Roll on stage, Bailee has mostly kept her musical journey private. That changed earlier this month when she surprised fans by posting a TikTok video of herself singing an original song.

The clip begins with Bailee strumming her acoustic guitar before launching into a song tentatively titled “Fat In High School.” Alongside the video, she wrote:
“i literally just wrote this and idk if i like the end yet but enjoy & lmk ur thoughts!!”

Lyrics That Hit Home

The song candidly explores the pain of feeling different and insecure as a teenager because of body image struggles. Her raw honesty quickly resonated with listeners who praised her for putting such personal emotions into music.

Fans flooded the comments with encouragement:

• “Girl!!! Get in that studio!!!! You’re sooooo good, you got that country twang.”

• “I love this and I felt this 20 years ago.”

• “Love the lyrics… I think in my late 30s is when I finally stopped caring what others thought about my body. I wish I felt that way sooner. Great song, girlie—you’re killing it.”

Carrying On The Family Legacy

It’s clear Bailee Ann inherited her father’s gift for storytelling and emotional depth. While she’s still testing the waters of her own artistry, this glimpse of her songwriting shows she has the talent and authenticity to connect with people far beyond TikTok.

With a father who built his career by baring his soul through music, Bailee Ann seems ready to continue that legacy in her own way—honest, unfiltered, and relatable.
