Answer 1

Brass Knuckles is Nelly's fifth studio album, due to be released October 13, 2007. Nelly explained the reasoning for the title as "the best way" he can explain "how hard it's going to hit you.


History
The first single was believed to be "Cut It Out" which features Pimp C and Sean P but was later confirmed to be "Wadsyaname", which was released digitally on August 21, 2007

Nelly has a range of featured guests lined up for Brass Knuckles, with appearances from T.I., Akon, Snoop Dogg, Pimp C, Babyface, Rick Ross and Avery Storm all confirmed, Jermaine Dupri also stated possibilities of hopeful collaborations with Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and Bruce Springsteen. Dupri gave a look into the two collaborations, one being Nelly, Carey and Jackson all appearing on the same track, in which he stated Nelly has laid the following blueprint,

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. He wants Janet to rap a 16-bar verse, he wants Mariah to sing the hook and he's gonna do two verses. He has it all planned out. You ask him about it! This is what he wants; he's 100-percent deadlocked into it.

He went on to speak about the possibility of the Springsteen collaboration and that two of his own tracks will appear on the album,

I think he's doing a record with Bruce Springsteen. You know he always has to do one of those! My two records [that J.D. has produced for Nelly so far], he's gonna have some people on them — I won't tell it yet. I don't want to jinx the record.

More production will come from Pharrell, Bryan Michael Cox and Neff-U among others

Answer 2

In 2007 Nelly also is featured on T.I.'s "T.I. Vs. T.I.P." album on a song called "Show It To Me".


and apperently he has a song coming out called "wads ya name" he has a new album coming out this fall called brass knuckles

Answer 3

Nelly still rapping, just that he been busy of making new songs. The newest song that came out is Wadsyaname, and his newest album will be called Brass Knuckles. It's probably coming out around December.

Answer 4

I think he still records sometimes but its a crowded field in the rap/hip hop industry everyone is trying to get on the stage and there's only room for so many at a time. Nelly had some good songs, he'll probably make a comeback if he makes a new single, his songs usually do well.

Answer 5

Nellie went on to run the restaurant founded by Mrs. Oleson. Although she continued to be a bee hotch, she did manage to work reasonably well beside half-pint, if only for a time.

Nellie died of tuberculosis in 1903, but her memory lingers...

Answer 6

Well hopefully he's gone somewhere to harden up! Shux he is one of the most bubblegum pop rappers out!

Answer 7

He has too much competiton now and he's afraid to come out and play. You saw what happened with that song he made with Janet Jackson, right? She couldn't even help him and she's freakin' Janet Jackson! Poor Nelly.

Answer 8
