Remember NELLY?
Do you remember this guy?

He wore a Band-Aid on his face! That's how badass he was!

And not even a normal Band-Aid! A weird bone-white one! Kinda looks like a Breathe-Right nasal strip!

Maybe he eventually ran out of Band-Aids and switched to masking tape!

But WE DIDN'T CARE!!! This seemed cool to us!
Remember his GIGANTIC hit "Hot In Herre?" No, I didn't misspell it! That's just how people were spelling things in 2002! It seemed totally normal then! And not just retarded, like it seems now! No, I'm not making this up! Look, everyone was doing it!

I guess you had to be there.
Anyway, NELLY was the coolest guy in the universe back in 2002! I was working at VH1 then and every show we made was either about or hosted by Nelly! You know Flavor Flav? Well, that was Nelly in 2002!
So what happened to this guy? It seems like everybody forgot who he was!
Well, guess what! He's releasing a new album next month, that's what!
Here's what Jermaine Dupri says about the coming album:
"Nelly's got a crazy collaboration he's trying to put together, which is him, Janet and Mariah Carey all on one song...That's what he wants. If he could convince them to do it, it would be crazy."
WHOA!!! Nelly, Janet Jackson, and Mariah Carey!
Somehow, Nelly just ensured that he'll be even MORE irrelevant when his new album "drops!"
Or is that "irrrrrrrelevant?"
