Other than the rapper-turned-country artist known for songs delving into his troubled past, like “Save Me,” Jacquie Roar and Huntley — who were both on “The Voice” — also performed.
The artists performed to an audience of about 600-700 adults in custody who gained the privilege of attending for good behavior, an Oregon State Penitentiary spokesperson told KOIN 6 News. Most of those who couldn’t attend in person could watch it live via their in-cell TVs.
