Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Cornell Iral Haynes Jr. (born November 2, 1974), better known as Nelly, is a rapper from St. Louis, Missouri. His success was unusual for a rapper in the 2000s since he did not come from either the west coast, east coast or southern hip hop scenes. His style of hip-hop is known for having a mellow delivery, his accent and catchy hooks which are more often sung than rapped.He began his music career as a member of a hip-hop group called St. Lunatics. While they enjoyed some local success in the late 90s, the group were unable to get a major label to sign them. He thus decided to leave the group and pursued a solo career. His debut album Country Grammar was released in 2000. The album was a huge success, producing three top 20 singles (two of which made the top 10) and the album itself received a diamond RIAA certificate (the ninth hip-hop album to do so) and is currently the fourth-best selling hip-hop album of all time. His next three albums also proved to be mutli-platinum selling successes, and he had a number of popular singles as well.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Nelly has also done some work in film and television. These included a supporting role in The Longest Yard, a four-episode appearance in CSI: NY and a recurring role in Real Husbands of Hollywood. | |

Older Than They Look | |
| Nelly (Music) / int_2f36d97 | comment |
Older Than They Look: Nelly can easily pass for a man in his early-to-mid 20s despite being in his mid-to-late 40s, as of now. He looked exactly the same for the past 20 years. | |

Misogyny Song | |
| Nelly (Music) / int_61d6784f | comment |
Misogyny Song: "Tip Drill" is a particularly infamous example due to its controversial accompanied music video. It memorably included, amongst other things, Nelly taking a credit card and swiping it between the buttocks of a woman wearing a thong. | |

Sequel Song | |
| Nelly (Music) / int_6298c177 | comment |
Sequel Song: "Gone" is considered a sequel to "Dilemma", and both feature Kelly Rowland. It was even originally titled "Dilemma p.2" but Nelly changed the name out of fear that it would not meant people's expectations. | |

Product Placement | |
| Nelly (Music) / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Subverted in the case of "Air Force Ones". The song is about a brand of Nike shoes, but he wasn't paid by them to make the song (though the music video was still banned on MTV due to their anti-product placement policies). He did, however, get his own line of Nike shoes after the song became a hit. | |
