Nelly - Da Derrty Versions: The Reinvention (Universal, 2003)

It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened. Nelly was ridin' high being the top poster boy from the Lou (St. Louis). Then Chingy came from out of nowhurr and everyone starts following him. Nelly wants to still be considered relevant so the record company puts this lackluster remix compilation out. Why are St. Louis rappers so disposable? Because they make being from the Midwest look gimmicky. We ain't country, we don't all milk cows, and not everyone in the Lou pronounces "here" like "herr". Next thing you know, J-Kwon ("Now errrbody in the club get tipsy") will replace Chingy. This album is terrible and not even E-40 can save the "Country Grammar" remix, which shouldn't have even been remixed! Nelly, it looks like your time is running out. Better pick up that baseball glove again... -EJR
