Episode Details

Nelly’s debut album “Country Grammar” dropped July 27, 2000, and didn’t just hit number one—it rewrote the rules of hip-hop with its explosive blend of country and St. Louis swagger, produced by Jay E. The album’s global platinum success, nine million U.S. sales, and chart-topping hits like “Country Grammar” and “E.I.” turned Nelly into a household name and proved the Midwest could dominate the sound of the early 2000s.
