He Put St. Louis on His Back, Respect that Man Nelly

[5th Letter]

Nelly had his lane but his music was never for me, he was lyrically hit or miss. But with that said he's better than a lot of these rappers out today.

 

[JokerzWyld]

People claim that I only like the lyrical shit, but I always liked Nelly's music. His first two albums. I think he was the first artist to blend hip hop with country, and that alone is dope. Country Grammar was so dope when it first came out though.

 

[TheGOAT]

GOAT'd only for Ashanti

Nelly had a cool debut

...i didnt like anything after

Ashanti bad as hell tho

 

[HerbalVaporCapers]

Nelly a real street dude who has always made little to no mention in his music about the work he put in. In our day where everyone who jaywalks is a mob boss, it's good to see him be humble with that. And his shit dope at times, so salute Nelly

That new song he got TRASH tho

 

[Tsotsi Cape Town]

Country Grammar sold like a mu'afucka! How many times plat it go?

 

[natural born sinners]

Think it went diamond..I wasn't a big fan cause I was a DMX junkie at that time, so nelly's sound was far from what I was into. Never took em serious till I heard the "ride w me" and the "luvin me" tracks, but dude had that hit making ability for sure, him n ja rule had radio on lock

 

[tompetrez3]

He won in a beef against KRS-1

 

[Ounceman]

I'll salute and celebrate the fact that he gave us the tip drill video. And that's about it.

 

[nawledge_god]

He Had His Own Little Lane Made Some Decent Music Put The Lou On The Map...Not Mad At That

 

[dwade206]

"I'm just kidding like Jason..."

Smh, no.....just no

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

he had bangers, yall can hate on his "rap ability" all u want, the songs were jammin.

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

FUCK that country crossover shit tho.

 

[dalyricalbandit]

Cause it's all in my head I think about it over and over again

 

[So ILL]

That first album and that one with his group banged. Plus, being about 2 hours from STL, it was good to see someone from the Midwest blow up.

 

[Cutler 26 INT's LOL!]

He had bangers up till 06. Nice lil run...

 

[SELASI_i]

He had a nice run, I always liked Murphy Lee the schoolboy but never copped none of they shits tho. He did put stl on the map as far as rap goes.

 

[AP21]

yea...im kinda like some of ya'll, he had his lane, but i wasnt checking for most of his non single stuff. Had a podnuh back in undergrad that would bump nothing but nelly. I mean EVERY CD dude came out with b/t 2000-2005.

But this was a nice jab in what really was a one sided beef

See I'm tired of playing games

With niggas with money names

For real, money you lame

I put you money to shame

This ain't cynical

This ain't subliminal

I'm physical, financial, and mental to be a general

Why, lil mama case you want a (Soldier!)

Not the type that's in a tank but in a (Rover!)

Yeah man you at the game ordering refreshments (where you at?)

I'm on the floor watching my investments

Buttoned up some call it grown up look

I like to call it having money that fold up look

That Don Perignon, Cristal cold up look

Got her (woah woah woah woah)

Chingy wasnt right ever since lol
