Nah, it’s just that the bar is so low now... I liked his music though.

Sad he got called corny for NOT rappin excessively about the negative shyt he was ACTUALLY DOING
Sometimes I worry that if the problems in the black community got fixed, art would die, cause no one wants to listen to a nikka rap about "happy" shyt.
"Redman's music was better in the era when he was in a bad place" "I miss Ghostface shyt back when he was dusted" "when tyler the creator got money and started rappin about Mclarens he became lame".
If shyt got fixed, and EVERYBODY was up? nikkas wouldn't even feel comfortable listening to that so called "real" shyt. The culture would do a 180 and most of that killin and dealin shyt would feel real lame and useless. You can't complain about something and then need it to function
I know the thread ain't about all that it's about Nelly. shyt just came to me...

Enjoy your life and loved ones.
Besides Country Grammar I messed with Nellyville too. He had some good melodies and his voice sounded good on tracks, plus the beats were dope. The songs have a nice vibe.
More tracks in the spoiler as to not flood the thread.

It was written in the Bible
He was wack compared the standards set back then and even looking back, his lyricism was basic. When you think of all the basics/simple ass lyricism displayed in today’s hip hop though, nelly wouldnt seem so bad in comparison. I didn’t care much for him outside of a couple tracks when he first started popping in 2000/2001. Looking back I’d take his career over 98% of who’s popular now

if Nelly dropped today in the twitter/instagram/Iovine era, he'd be one of the greatest ever
