About

Ranked as the fourth best-selling rap artist of all time by the Recording Industry of America, Nelly has become a symbol of rap's crossover success in mainstream pop music. With over 21 million albums sold in the US alone, his pop-infused hip hop and unique vocal delivery have earned him six Top 10 albums and made him a live concert favorite. His seventh studio album, 2012's M.O., features hit singles "Hey Porsche" and "Get Like Me," a collaboration with Nicki Minaj and Pharrell. Born Cornell Iral Haynes, Jr. in 1974, Nelly got his first taste of musical success with the St. Louis hip hop collective St. Lunatics. In 2000, he launched his solo career with No. 1 debut album Country Grammar, which showcased his signature Southern drawl mixed with a Midwestern twang. 2002 follow-up Nellyville also peaked at No. 1 and included the international smash " Hot in Herre," which earned him a Grammy in 2003 for Best Male Rap Solo Performance. On 2013's M.O. tour, Nelly treated ticket buyers to his greatest hits, earning rave reviews for his upbeat stage presence and charismatic performances.

    The people who opened weren't very good and it dragged on for too long. Luckily Nelly is so good that it made up for the beginning.

  • Nelly was off the hook!

    When Nelly came on stage, everyone went wild and he really did his thing.

  • Can't wait to go again :)

    by Vana on 2011-03-26Kool Haus - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    I must say that I was very unsure about what to expect because I've never been to a hip hop concert and I didn't know too many Nelly songs. Or so I thought. I was so pleansantly surprised when I realized that I knew most of the songs and that my favorites (some old) were on the set list. Nelly was amazing! Fun, engaging, entertaining, easy on the eyes lol and best of all, he can really sing!!! Overall, I loved the concert and will definitely go again when I get the chance.

  • Big Nelly Fan

    by MiiM on 2011-03-26Kool Haus - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    The last time I saw Nelly and The St. Lunatics was in Chicago with 24,999 other people. This time I was right up front in a fairly intimate crowd. It was a blast. He still put on a show as though it was for 25,000. I couldn't believe it when it was over. It felt like we'd only been there a short while. If he'd gone another hour I would still be wanting more.

  • 4 hours of my life I can't get back!

    The sound was poor, the light show was budget. The words were all muffled and the show started late. I was expecting a lot from the Nelly concert because his music is hot, but the show was a big dissapointment. Take a look at other performers for some ideas and wow fans.

  • Nelly was AWESOME!!!

    by Shordee on 2011-03-25Brandt Centre - Evraz Place - ReginaRating: 4 out of 5

    I thoroughly enjoyed Nelly! Him and his crew were very entertaining, involved and interacted with the crowd phenomenally and is sexy as all get out! Fabulous!

  • Nelly was unforgettable and absolutely gorgeous!!!

    Best concert Ive seen!!! And perfect line up of songs:D

  • Ok for a "Recording Artist"...

    by Shawn1977 on 2011-03-24MTS Centre - WinnipegRating: 2 out of 5

    I really like Nelly but the concert was somewhat disappointing. His set was very short, just over an hour, and a good chunk of that time was spent with stunts such as bringing people on stage from the audience. I expected him to perform more of his songs, rather than knocking them off 2 or 3 at a time by doing short medleys. For the price I don't think he worked hard enough for the money. I also wish he had dancers on stage as his opening act did... its what one would expect from watching his music videos. Its also the only concert I've attended where there was no encore.

    Wow, Nelly was fantastic! He's super sexy and very very talented. I'm happy I was on the floor, being so close made the experience that much better.

  • Nelly

    by TylaL on 2011-03-24MTS Centre - WinnipegRating: 4 out of 5

    Great Show, Very upbeat, Vocals were clear. Video Screens were helpful when really tall people stood in front of me as we were on the floor. Security was on top of problems. Overall Good Event to Attend. Nelly's never been here before and I'd like to say "About Time!"

  • Nelly is worth every penny.

    I thought Nelly performed amazing. He did all his popular hits and everyone was on their feet having the time of their lives dancing. I was expecting him to have some dancers but instead he pulled girls from the crowd. Although a neat idea I felt lots of song time was wasted as he spent lots of time making three girls walk.. which yes was a good introduction to body on me however would have been nice if he spent less time on that and more time on his music. Overall he was amazing though. I would recommend to all my friends and family.

    Sexy sexy sexy!!! Nelly put on an amazing show!! I would definitely see him again!!

  • nelly was awesome but the event center sucks!!!

    by madddogg on 2011-03-22Edmonton Event Centre - EdmontonRating: 5 out of 5

    nelly was great and interacted with the crowd :) would love to see him again!!! but we were made to wait wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too long for nelly to come out. doors open at 9 and he came out at 1215!!! but this has been typical for every concert i have attended here put on by urban metro and 91.7. we also bought vip tickets and could sit in the vip area because it was full. so it was a waste of money. so basically the edmonton event center is terriable but nelly was awesome.
