ARTIST INFO
Nelly first hopped onto the scene in 2000 with his smash debut album, Country Grammar, which sold over nine million copies worldwide. It spawned multiple hit singles including “Ride Wit Me”, “Country Grammar”, and “E.I.” as well as four Grammy nominations, putting the new rapper front and centre of the music scene at the top of the new millenium. Nelly kept the momentum going with the 2002 release of Nellyville, which further cemented the rapper as one to watch in the industry. The album debuted at #1 and garnered two Grammy Awards for “Hot in Here” – Best Male Rap Solo Performance – and “Dilemma” [feat. Kelly Rowland] – Best Rap Song Collaboration. Since then Nelly has released five other albums including Sweat (2004), Suit (2004), Brass Knuckles (2008), 5.0(2010) and M.O (2013) as well as hit singles like “Grillz”, “The Fix” and more.
Besides making noise within the hip-hop community, Nelly has proven his versatility as an artist for also collaborating with some of country music’s biggest entertainers. He first collaborated alongside Tim McGraw in 2004 for “Over and Over” and later followed up with a collaboration with Florida Georgia Line on the 6x Platinum single “Cruise” in 2013. Nelly later released a cover of Thomas Rhett’s “Die A Happy Man”, which received high praises from MTV, Billboard and CMT. Throughout his career, Nelly has won multiple American Music Awards, a Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Award, Soul Train Music Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, and was previously crowned “Top Pop, Rap, and R&B/Hip-Hop Artist Of The Year” by Billboard. Undoubtedly one of the biggest rappers in history, Nelly looks forward to making 2018 his most memorable year yet.
Multi-platinum and Grammy award-winning rap superstar Nellyis wrapping up the year with an exciting new announcement for his Canadian fans. The hit maker behind hip-hop bangers like “Ride Wit Me”, “Hot In Here”, “Dilemma” and “Country Grammar” will be kicking off his national “ALL WORK NO PLAY” promo tour starting in March 2018 where he’s set to perform in major cities across Canada including Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Vancouver and more. This comes ahead of the artist’s highly anticipated eighth studio album which is slated to release next year. Currently featured as one of Billboard’s “Greatest of All Time, Hot 100 Artists,” Nelly has cemented himself as one of best rappers in history for consistently pushing the envelope as both an artist and entertainer. Throughout his career, he’s collaborated with some of the biggest musical artists across multiple genres including Kelly Rowland, Justin Timberlake, Akon, Ashanti, Nicki Minaj, Pharrell Williams, Tim McGraw, Florida Georgia Line and many more. With multiple awards to his name, including two Grammy Awards, as well as multiple number one Billboard albums and singles throughout his career, Nelly looks forward to kicking off the new year with an unforgettable concert tour.
