so nelly's country grammer done went certified diamond?! :ohhh:

[NSSVO]

Well i know luda can spit for real....but to me his albums were pitbull status same with nelly he was legit just singing...so school me

How old are you and where are you from? Word of Mouf? Country Grammer? Nellyville?

 

[grock2727]

the same source that said that nelly was at 8.49mill in 2011 got it probably right, since now is at 10mill, but got the number of 50 sales Wrong?

I can't speculate on that since there is no source. I can only work with the facts we have from the RIAA, which is the only company that certifies album sales. I'm not saying HiphopDX is wrong, the RIAA is saying it.

Those albums sucked breh......from Texas and im a older hip hop fan

 

[Tommy Sheppard]

nellyville was better but this song is still a classic to nelly.

 

[GeeEffKay]

May not have been a huge fan or anything, but no one can deny the impact his singles had.

 

[TrebleMan]

Deserves it. Luven Me was some dope cruising music.

I wonder how many folks claim this to be classic now were hating when he released it.

 

[Spaceman Piff]

This is way more impressive than 50 and get rich or die trying. 50 had one if the biggest machines in hip hop history behind him. Nelly had nobody on his album, basically did it by himself. No super producers either. Just local talent. shyts crazy when you think about it.

Actually nelly was signed to cudda love who had something to do with getting mase signed and poppin.

 

[NegaDuck]

Classic. Bought that the day it came out.

Luven Me

That song is so mellow and dope

Nelly’s debut album, Country Grammar, has become just the eighth Hip Hop album to reach diamond certification, reflecting just one element of his rap enterprise.

Nelly’s “Country Grammar” Becomes Just Eighth Hip Hop Album Certified Diamond

Pac got two diamond albums

 

[I love Latina women]

[nahnah]

I loved that album as a kid

*raises hand*

The thing is - it doesn't matter how I feel about it. You don't have to like an album to admit it is a "classic".
It's "classic" status is contingent on how the general public feels about it. You can't deny it was loved,
you can't deny the sales, you can't deny how it altered the game.

I'm still not crazy about the album (aside of "For My", and "Thicky Thick Girl"), but I respect all of the
accolades it has collected and Nelly himself.

It's a fun album to listen to. It's kinda like how the 2 Live Crew albums still get play at the adult BBQs and shyt.
