During the final tour-stop on Post Malone and Jelly Roll's blockbuster 2026 Big Ass Stadium, Part 2 run in Salt Lake City, Utah, Post has shared some touching words with his friend Jelly.

Jelly often takes a moment when emerging with Post to perform ‘Losers’ to share how much it means to him to be on this tour, and to express his love for the ‘Chemical’ hitmaker.

But heartwarmingly, at this last tour-stop on a two-year run, Post turned the tables and took some time to underline how much he values his friendship with the Nashville native.

After singing ‘Losers’ together, Post addressed Jelly directly, “I just want to do this in front of the world, I want to do this in front of the entire world. I want you to know, I can't tell you...”

Amusingly, the ‘rockstar’ crooner then got a little self-conscious, joking with attendees, “Is this weird? Is it strange for a grown man to profess his love for another grown man?”

Post went on, “I can't tell you how many times I've been riding around in a vehicle, and they say, ‘Ah, that's Jelly Roll!’ And I say, ‘No, not Jelly Roll, he's way f***ing cooler’”.

He then reflected on all the shows they've played across North America together, “But I just want you to know, we've done this two times. Not just here, all around the f***ing country”, with Jelly correcting him, “The world, baby. You took me to Europe for the first time. My first international tour was because of you, Post”.

Jelly referenced how he needed a pardon in order to be able to travel overseas, “You took a f***ing felon all the way to Europe with you”, with Post playfully saying he'd place the ‘Need a Favor’ singer-songwriter in his “top five favourite felons in the world”.

Then, after their light-hearted banter, Posty returned to the sincere words of apprecation he wanted to offer, “I just want to say, thank you for sharing your love with the world. Thank you for sharing your music with everybody. Thank you for f***ing putting on a f***ing hell of a show for these motherf***ers every f***ing night, man”.

Post concluded by stressing that, whatever this world brings for Jelly, he'll always be there for him, “I just want you to know that no matter what you will ever do in life, that I have your f***ing back and I love you more than I could ever f***ing say”. A visibly moved Jelly replied simply, “I love you, Post”, before running off-stage.

It's safe to say it's been a tumultuous period for Jelly, with the genre-blurring artist revealing earlier in the summer that he and his wife of 10 years, Bunnie XO, were getting divorced. It followed a stretch where he experienced some of the highest highs, such as winning three GRAMMY Awards, while also being the subject of tremendous criticism and negativity online regarding his faith, relationship and more.

Against this backdrop, and the fact that Post also went through a high-profile split from his fiancée, Jamie Park, in late 2024, it makes Post's words to Jelly feel all the more pertinent.

With both artists hinting at the next chapters in their respective catalogues, they've made it clear that they've been recording new music together while out on the road. So while we might not be seeing them perform on-stage as often as we have over the past two years, it seems we can look forward to hearing more from this duo soon.

Post is expected to officially launch his next album rollout, The Eternal Buzz, with the long-teased ‘Chrome Heartbreaker’. The project is rumoured to be a double-album featuring 20 songs apiece, split between country and Posty's earlier trap sound. Given Jelly's penchant for both country and trap music, he could feasibly guest on both the country half of The Eternal Buzz and the trap side, too.
