Jelly Roll is planning to plead with the government to allow him to own a rifle so he can hunt.

The country star appeared on the “Joe Rogan Experience” and discussed the terms of his parole, which prohibit him from owning or firing a gun.

Rogan asked Jelly Roll if these conditions were “forever,” which prompted Jelly Roll to explain that he’s up for a pardon this month.

“Well, this is interesting. This is a slippery slope for me. I am up for a pardon this year. My paperwork has been sent to my governor, and he considers pardons every December. So, every day, I’m just kind of praying,” Jelly Roll said.

Even if Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee gave Jelly Roll a pardon, “Tennessee has a zero forgiveness policy for violent offenders,” Jelly Roll explained.

“There should be some path to redemption. Even if it takes 30 years.”

“So, I would be pardoned, but I wouldn’t be exonerated. The charges aren’t completely gone,” he said.

Jelly Roll went on to explain his plan if he does get pardoned.

“My goal is that I want to reach out to legislation eventually and go, ‘Hey, if nothing else, I’d like my right to hunt,'” Jelly Roll said. “It’s done a lot for my mental health. It’s done a lot for my physical health.”

Jelly Roll told Rogan there needs to be a “path to redemption” in Tennessee.

“I want to go to them and go, ‘Look, I understand if you’ve ever raped somebody or killed somebody, but I think that every … it should … there should be some path to redemption.’ Even if it takes 30 years,” Jelly Roll said, calling himself a “redemption guy.”

He admitted his wish to own a gun goes beyond his desire to hunt, but he wishes he would be able to protect himself.

“I’m a million dollars plus a year in security. I’d cut that bill in half tomorrow if I had the right to carry,” Jelly Roll said.

Rogan chimed in and understood the concerns for public safety but noted that Christianity is a big believer in redemption, and Jelly Roll is a Christian.

In the 2023 documentary “Jelly Roll: Save Me,” he revealed he’s been to jail 40 times for various offenses. His most serious charge came when he was 16 for aggravated robbery and possession with intent to sell.

Jelly Roll was tried as an adult and faced up to 20 years in prison but ended up serving a little over a year in prison and seven years probation.

“I hadn’t hit my last growth spurt. I was charged as an adult years before I could buy a beer, lease an apartment, get a pack of cigarettes. I feel like the justice system at that point kind of parked me on my only set path,” he previously told Billboard.
