A savvy rapper with crossover appeal, Nelly seemed like a novelty when he debuted with the Top Ten pop hit ‘Country Grammar (Hot…)’ in 2000, but he quickly proved to be a legitimate hit maker with ‘Hot in Herre,’ ‘Dilemma,’ and ‘Shake Ya Tail feather’—and those three only account for a fraction of his Hot 100-toppingand Grammy-winning hits. These feats built the foundation of a career that boasts six consecutive Top Ten albums, from the diamond ‘Country Grammar’ (2000) to the platinum ‘5.0’ (2010) and ‘The Fix’ (2015), leading to warmly received collaborations in the 2020s. Amidst his recent studio recording sessions, Nelly is actively promoting his freshly introduced moonshine brand, “Mo Shine, “preparing some huge entrepreneurial announcements and unveiling his latest philanthropic initiative, 314 Education. |
