Nelly’s Low-Turnout College Concert Goes Viral As Video Spreads

[ReturnOfJudah]

The Temptations could draw a bigger crowd on a short notice

Y'all chill with the Nelly slander.

What an L for Nelly’s team.

I have a soon to be college freshman and she has no idea who Nelly is. She knows certain SONGS but she wouldn’t care to see them performed live.

I went to a legal conference a few years back and Nelly was our corporate entertainment and the club was packed. We were lawyers in our 40s and 50s we listened to Nelly in college and law school.

Stand on my money if I wanna be taller
Smack him with a G, I bet he go and get his lawyer

 

[African Peasant]

Earth, Wind and Fire would have flopped on that stage. Please.

No

It's also about having a REAL fanbase. And it's sadly apparent Nelly never really had that. I remember in 2006 I went to Cats Credle in Chapel HIll to see Rakim perform with Brother Ali opening for him. This was 20 years after Rakim came out. The place was packed from front to back and you couldn't move in that mf. I got there hours before the show just to stand front row. Some people will only just listen to you because everyone else is. Then if the powers that be tell people to stop fukking with an artists, dumb ass , fake ass fans will do it. Not long ago , Da Baby was one of the hottest rappers out. His music was trash as fukk then just as it is now. People stopped listening to him strictly cuz the gay mafia told them to. hahaha. I wouldn't want these type of sheep as my fans.

Those kids weren’t even alive the last time Nelly had a hit, what was he expecting? He’s not Michael Jackson

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Exactly what I came to say.

This is where the value of classic music comes into play.

Nelly’s music aged like shyt. It’s not timeless music that can be passed down to generations.

Yeah yall are trying to play Nelly right now. He clearly has timeless singles. I was in that crowd at the Bun B Takeover concert and saw the response. What Nelly doesn’t have is timeless ALBUMS.

 

[Mastamimd]

There was a tweet where this dude's 20 year old son was asked about the Kendrick Drake beef and son was like we don't care about them lyrical rappers lol

 

[Artificial Intelligence]

Y'all chill with the Nelly slander.

Act like Nelly ain’t got hits brehs

 

[Long Live The Kane]

Yup…Nelly is literally one of the most booked legacy acts in rap, he actually eats heavily on the road. That he got this show in the first place is testament to that. It was a free show which likely means a real promoter wasn’t in charge, aka someone had their own money and profit on the line…just throwing the schools student events budget around

 

[Tribal Outkast]

We just had a thread where people were mad at a teacher asking kids where Jeezy hid the yams.. if they don’t know Jeezy, they don’t know Nelly.

[Mag Wheel]

Dude been garbage. In 2024 he is toxic waste.

 

[African Peasant]

Nelly 'only' got 4/5 timeless mega singles. He got nothing else.

He CANNOT carry a show/concert by himself. People don't care about Nelly. They just want to listen to those 4/5 songs and on carry on.

 

[Meowth tote da Uzi]

This isnt 03 anymore wtf they expect. Better get some goddamn yeat up in that bytch or some carti.

Nelly stills streams 19 million monthly on spotify, people are still playing his music. Ludacris streams are only at 6 million monthly.

Nelly is a multiplatinum artist with a Diamond album.

People in here are really talking foolish
