Nelly Blowing Up In 2000 Is One Of The Greatest Stories In The History Of Rap

[Wacky D]

and we're not going to see anything like it anytime soon.

my man came out of nowhere with a monster hit, debuted at #1 selling way more than anybody expected him to sell. universal didnt even intend for him to sell like that. people forget that his promotion wasnt all that until AFTER he moved crazy units.

then he just kept hitting us over the head with monster hits back-to-back-to-back-to-back and quickly became the highest selling black artist.

Country Grammar debuted at #3, not #1.

He was on a major too and being promoted as "the guy" from the midwest, so it wasn't really out of "nowhere" either.

I'd also like to add to this that Nelly sucks.

It sounded like another step back for hiphop intellectually when i first heard it. Everything from the sesame street beat to the nursery rhyme lyrics.
