Nelly

Sweat

Room for Improvement, but still Good

Review Score:

(8/10)
Whoa, Nelly threw us a curveball here with two albums in one day. Not surprising, Nelly is a decent artist and I have enjoyed his previous albums. I am a Nelly fan, always have been, but parts of this album Sweat dissappointed me and others made me happy.

First off- Na Na Na Na Na is a great song. My other faves are Another One, American Pie and Tilt ya head back.
However, I see that a lot of people are raving about how great a song "River don't Runn" is. I have to disagree. This song has a good beat and a catchy hook, but I feel like Nelly just forgot how to rhyme in this one. He says "I hate to hate a hater
In fact I hate to hate.Hatein' is hatein' you should never hate congradulate" Honestly, what kind of rhyme is this? Everytime I listen to this song I cringe when it comes to this part and I think, yikes! What was he thinking?

Anyway, overall this album is pretty hott. I recommend giving it a try especially if you like the hardcore Nelly. THough I must admit, I like Country Grammar better. I can feel the popishness of Nelly's music that everyone has been talking about. Still, get the album anyway, you'll like it:-)
