NELLY - DA DERRTY VERSIONS (The Reinvention)
And deeply rooted in the lyrics of the new-fangled "Ride Wit Me" (featuring City Spud), rests Nelly's diverse musical interests: he integrates an interpolation of Grammy-winning singer/songwriter John Mayer's popular debut hit single "No Such Thing." "I listen to all types of music," Nelly explains. "I was really was into this song, so I wanted to find a way to use it."
Meanwhile, members of Nelly's new entertainment dynasty, Derrty Entertainment, step to the plate on the remixed "Batter Up." The bass-heavy, slightly slow tempo instrumental draws from the Jefferson's, and features lyrics from up-and-coming Derrty Entertainment artists King Jacob, Prentiss Church, Tru and Chocolate Tai along with fellow St. Lunatics Ali and Murphy Lee.
The lead single "Iz U," produced by Nelly's in-house beat making machine, Basement Beats, embraces and renovates The People's Court theme song. A true club anthem, "Iz U" is constructed so well that the song from the court case series is practically undetectable to the untrained ear. "'Iz U' is crazy because it's an older song that I'd completed, but never put out," Nelly says. "But this time I did it over a little differently."
