Nelly talks about Brass Knuckles, Jordans with Complex

Recently Joe La Puma of Complex Magazine caught up with Nelly and had a few questions to ask about his recently released album Brass Knuckles as well as a few questions about his love for J’s. Whether you are a fan of his music or not, I am sure many can relate to his passion for Air Jordans. Read the feature at Complex.

3. Nelly and JD copied U-N-I’s video…
   he did that song Air Force One’s it was ok but he shoudlve left it at that and not copied another Bands idea.
   He is an medicre rapper but lucky him he is sitting next to Greatness.

7. at this point im pretty much done wit paying rappers any mind cause its all hype and promotion. but nelly really bothers me.lol. he made ‘air force ones’, that was a hit and it was jammin, im not going to front. but then he starts on this 3 or 4 year thing with nike on how he wasnt getting his own line from them or even a deal to promote their product. then he goes to RBK for a second, that signature shoe flops!!! then a couple years past now hes back with jordan brand/nike with that ‘weak-stolen-not getting any play’ “dont step on my jays” track.now hes talking about i been lovin jay’s and blah blah…im sure hes loved jays, like everybody else in the WORLD! i know its business at the end of the day but keep it funky DIRTY!! i dunno this guy bothers me, but he is a good business man living by the code: CTC- cut the check.

   had to let off my chest.
