This page offers some links to Nelly lyrics. The rapper Nelly got his start with his friends in the group the St. Lunatics. His rapid-fire cadence, soulful sound and energetic stage presence soon caught the attention of Universal Records, who eventually signed him. He released his debut, Country Grammar, in 2000 and it spawned the mega-hit single "Country Grammar (Hot...)," which propelled the album into a #3 debut on the Billboard 200. With the release of his second album, Nellyville, he became one of the best-selling rappers of the early-2000s and had sold more than 30 million albums leading into the release of his fifth studio release, September 2008's Brass Knuckles.MarketWatch: 3x Grammy Winner Nelly Hits Hard...
