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.

Yes it was.

Nelly was from a city that wasn't known for hiphop
He wasn't affliated with famous crew
His hits weren't produced by hot producers
He didn't have any known features on his debut
he didn't start any beef or controversies

his hype and music was purely based on his music.
factual

which are all things you cant say for a ton of huge cats...em..50..drake...ect

yup.

off the title track alone, I'm thinking of the lyrics. it wasn't some dumb-dumb chit.

people think you have to wear a dashiki and a kufi & rap a certain way in order to be considered lyrical.
