Nelly

Sweat

Very dynamic album with loads of party songs!

Review Score:

(8/10)
Nelly's Sweat is jammin'! This is one nonstop party of funky, danceable songs! I liked the orchestra that he used on the opening song. But after that, it's one nonstop series of jams. I liked American Dream, the song he did with Christina Aguilera and the one he did with Mobb Deep and Missy Elliott is dynamite. Flap Your Wings is definitely funky from the Neptunes and the Jayson Bridges-produced songs give the other producers a run for their money on here, especially Jay-E's. That one Alchemist song is hot, a unique change. There's a huge emphasis on bumpin' beats, strong rhythms, smart usage of guest appearances and deep basslines. Nelly tends to rap more than his usual singing style on some tracks. And Boy is a another hot song with its percolating groove! There's like 4 to 5 potential hits here! They will be bumping and playing this album like crazy in the clubs with the choice tracks! Very energetic and consistent all throughout! Most artists that put out two albums of material have some filler stuff and throwaway tracks thrown together onto it and the listening pace of it isn't always good. This album doesn't have that, one solid song after the next. And Suit is just as good. This will be a huge hit all year long!
