Need A Date? How About 30 In One Night?
Marian Wright Edelman: Still Hungry in America
Nelly is expected to have a great fall with the release of his new album, 'Brass Knuckles,' due out in November.
The hip-hop heavy set will feature collaborations with fellow platinum-sellers T.I., Akon, Snoop Dogg, and even Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, a spokesperson confirmed.
While there are rumors that pop superstars Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and Bruce Springsteen may appear on 'Knuckles,' bonafide hit-makers Jermaine Dupri and Pharrell Williams are serving as producers.
The first single to yield from the set is 'Wadsyaname,' which the label rep said they are "focusing on" right now.

Nelly Sucks.He raps about a whole lot of nothing. He caters to the white audience, like making a song with Tim McGraw. Which is the key to success in the rap game now because whites buy 70% of rap music now.He is like alot of rappers who will compromise their self and will do anything to make a dollar. So he will probably have another multi-platinum selling cd to boost his ego even more. Good for him.

Nelly rocks! He makes music for all people to enjoy. The record he made with Tim McGraw was a success. This is directed to "Just my opinion" in my opinion, YOU"RE A JACKASS!

It's unfortunate that so many people have eyes and yet they do not see. Ears and still they hear nothing.
What is your talent and how well do you do it? Its such a cliche but how true don't hate, celebrate! Gifts and or talents come in varying forms and styles. It is what we as an individuals, choose to do with our gift's that makes the difference. For anyone who dislike misunderstands or hate Nelly's art form. Perfect your own and stand on top of your own game! What ever that is!
I for one applaud anyone who can take what ever is available to them and capitalize and expand on that ability.Some abilities are innate while others are hewn. Do you, and if hating is you then do better! By the way clueless Nelly is not from the South.Futher more to invite Tim McGraw and any other talented artist to do a track on a CD is a great business move. Its called collaboration.
