On his only major release of 2021, Nashville-based rapper and singer/songwriter Jelly Roll offered up the short and surprising project Ballads of the Broken. The brief album took a different stylistic approach than his usual countrified rap on almost every track, going from country-adjacent hooks ("Son of a Sinner") to eerie, remorse-filled pop tunes ("Over You"). His soulful vocals and the twangy backing are the main points of interest here, which might shock listeners expecting material like "Creature" or "Fall in the Fall." But for longtime fans, this evolution shouldn't be too much of a jolt, especially after all the hints on 2020's Self Medicated. In addition to eight fully-fleshed out productions, Ballads of the Broken includes two demo recordings.
