Jelly Roll, Keith Urban Duet Gives Fans “Chills”

Jelly Roll fulfilled a longtime dream when Beautifully Broken debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard 200. And shortly after its release, the “Need a Favor” hitmaker, 39, surprised fans with a deluxe version of the record, featuring collaborations with Halsey, ERNEST, Keith Urban, and more.

Throughout his meteoric rise to fame, Jelly Roll has remained refreshingly candid about his past struggles with addiction. That’s something Keith Urban can relate to, as the “Blue Ain’t Your Color” singer has also publicly battled heavy alcohol and cocaine use.

“Don’t Want To” draws on both artists’ experiences: And just ’cause I ain’t reaching for the bottle / And I ain’t got a smoke between my lips / Oh, just ’cause I ain’t trying to numb my sorrows / With any kind of vice I ain’t tried yet / Don’t mean I don’t want to.
