i think that Nelly is a great artist and that i would even want to be like him because of how successful he turned out to be. he's been through alot of stuff in his life, and for him to put it aside and write songs takes a lot. he's gone through deaths, drugs, and many more but still keeps his head up. i think he is a good guy and that he should keep writing and making more songs.
i think nelly is an inspiration because of all the obsticals in his life he had to go through. he's a good rapper and also a good person. i love some his songs too because of the meaning of them.
i think that this blog is really neat. i never new most of the stuff thats on the blog, like how he started his own luikemia foundation and how he won the awards on hot in here. this is really good
