Nelly – Let It Go (Lil Mama) (feat. Pharrell)

Chozen — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 07:59:49 +0000

What happened to Nelly? He just can’t seem to get his groove back, he went from a album selling 9 million to not even breaking 100,000 on his latest album. I guess Flo Rida took his spot as the Pop Rapper.

Bow Wow ft. Ron Browz & Nelly – Big Time (What They Call Me)

Chozen — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 08:39:24 +0000

New music from Bow Wow titled Big Time featuring Ron Brows, Nelly and I think JD dropped like two bars on it. Ron Browz sure knows how to mess up some auto-tune, the vocoder is suppose to synce your voice and help with holding a note but this dude doesn’t even set the vocoder to sync with his voice he just turns it on and starts signing. It’s still a cool track though.

Nelly – Warrior Video

Omar West — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:20:01 +0000

New music video from Nelly titled “Warrior” This song can be found on the Team USA soundtrack or his upcoming album Brass Knuckles (Sept, 16th). Check out what Nelly had to say about him choosing this track:

“The track “Warrior”, these reason I think that it plays a part in this is because of the intensity, and the Olympics is all about being that warrior, it’s all about bringing that mentality to it, that kill or be killed mentality, even though it’s friendly games and all that, but it’s the biggest event for the world…I think athletes and musicians are similar in the way that they both work hard, in the way that if everybody could do it, everybody would do it. Only if you have what it takes, and only if you can give what it takes.

Nelly Brass Knuckles Album Cover, Tracklist and Credits

Omar West — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 19:52:18 +0000

The album will feature fourteen tracks as reported by USA Today in 2007 B . Nelly explained the reasoning for the title as “the best way” he can explain “how hard it’s going to hit you.” Due to the amount of delays “Brass Knuckles” has undergone, many fans have begun referring to Nelly as a “huge tease.”

Guests

Nelly has a range of featured guests lined up for Brass Knuckles, with appearances from Akon, Ashanti, Avery Storm, Chuck D, Ciara, Fergie, LL Cool J, Nate Dogg, Snoop Dogg, St. Lunatics, T.I. and Usher. Jermaine Dupri also stated possibilities of hopeful collaborations with Bruce Springsteen, Mariah Carey and Janet Jackson. Dupri gave a look into the two collaborations, one being Nelly, Carey and Jackson all appearing on the same track, in which he stated Nelly has laid the following blueprint:

Nelly’s got a crazy collaboration he’s trying to put together, which is him, Janet and Mariah Carey all on one song…That’s what he wants. If he could convince them to do it, it would be crazy. He wants Janet to rap a 16-bar verse, he wants Mariah to sing the hook and he’s gonna do two verses. He has it all planned out. You ask him about it! This is what he wants; he’s 100-percent deadlocked into it.

He went on to speak about the possibility of the Springsteen collaboration and that two of his own tracks will appear on the album,

I think he’s doing a record with Bruce Springsteen. You know he always has to do one of those! My two records [that J.D. has produced for Nelly so far], he’s gonna have some people on them — I won’t tell it yet. I don’t want to jinx the record.

Nelly was unable to get to collaborate with Springsteen as he was too busy around the world, though he if still hopeful to collaborate with him on a future album, or even a repackage of Brass Knuckles.

More production will come from Bryan-Michael Cox, Neff-U and Pharrell Williams, among others.

On March 30, Nelly told HipHopDX.com that “the album would feature a handful of new producers.”
