Country singer Jelly Roll has experienced quite a bit of success in recent years. This rapper-turned-country singer’s music connects with folks of all ages and from all walks of life. But before he was the huge success he is today, there were times when he questioned if he had what it takes to be in this industry. Luckily, another beloved celeb was able to give him the encouragement he needed.

That celebrity was none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson himself. The two are now friends, but when they first met, they had no idea the impact they’d have on each other. Johnson recently opened up about this while on Kelly Clarkson’s talk show. See the emotional clip for yourself right here:

Part of the reason so many people love Jelly Roll’s music is because it helps them feel seen and understood. This is something that Johnson clearly understands from personal experience. Needless to say, as a huge fan of Johnson himself, this meant the world to Jelly Roll. Watch the singer react to Johnson’s kind words in the video below.

How sweet is that reaction? Despite being friends with Johnson, Jelly Roll simply can’t get over the fact that he, too, has made a positive impact on the actor’s life. It goes to show that it can be so easy to underestimate the value we bring to the people in our lives and the world as a whole.
“You don’t fully grasp how truly loved you are, sir!!” one fan points out to Jelly Roll in reply to his video, with another person adding, “Don’t ever lose that gratefulness. That is what separates you from the others.”
