when i think of nellie, i think of the city a young man didn't know it when they had man, but i just remember were just talking a little off the air after 20 years. they give you a meritus status. these 3 time grammy winner and he was recently honored at the 2021 b e t hip hop awards for his 22 years in the business. all of a sudden you become the wiser, the wiser character. his latest album, heart land is now available where you buy your music. please welcome nellie. how are you? huh. i'm good. well, how are you? a beautiful baby? i got to say we share a lot of st. louis, may i, when i used to go in as a young comedian, we would go up to day go hill. i know they can't call it that anymore. the best italian on the planet earth, the whatever they call it now. and there's up to world that back then was proud. did he go? hell, we love that man. yeah, thank you man. yeah, we just call it in that we just call it the historic historic st. louis placement

and you know, driving with culture and things of that nature. so ma'am, i'm good. how are you? i'm good. i also was a big fan of marvin barnes and my mom played for the spirits of st. louis way back when he was a great player, da, and i've got to tell you they might cut this, but i've got to tell you this quick story. bob. costas told me, no, you'll absolutely love this. marvin comes out of providence. he's a player man. he can really play, he can post up. he, you know, he can shoot the jumpers, he's just all around her. but a little flaky. so he sit with bob costas, who bob's 21 years old. and he's the announcer for the a v. a spirit to say louis, they're sit not at lambert field in the morning. they're flying over to louisville to play artist gilmore and the kentucky colonels. and it's one time zone away, but it's a short hop flight. so they're sitting in the waiting area. and marvin says the bob, bob, can i ask you something like 8 in the mornings?

yeah, go ahead. marmie says we leave here at 9 o'clock and we arrive in louisville at 845 . and is that correct? because of the time change 45 flight bob says, yeah, that's correct, that is a what say on the robert, i'm not getting on a time machine. but as a sales guy or a very restore is over anyway, man love. and i love bob. great guys, always, you know, want to say louis is on. yeah, he stays true to his who like you do, man, what is it about st. louis? but i always that get there because i thought the people were common sense. but not rubes at all. they got it completely, but they also had a pragmatic side. tell me what you dig about it. you know, i think it's just one of those situations. well, the all american question, did you meet anybody from st. louis? the 1st question that they're going to ask high school because that's, that's, that's just a wee, yes, yes. and st. louis, what high school you went to because it normally says,

you know what area you grew up in. almost basically how you see st. louis. because you know, as many great things as st. louis has all, we still have our courts and certain things that you know, we said that the overcome and it's, it can be a little bit socially, economically divided on a lot of aspects. so what high school you went to can say a lot about yeah i you see was made but you know where, where people town, you know what i mean. so you know, you know, to right people you be, i don't know what nelly. i got to say, man, i'm so i sense that you're about business to and i didn't catch her in the business . there's the art and then there's the business and i look at you and i think 22 years man. and he's still nelly, and he's still got it now. are still on or no, you know people burn bright for a few minutes, then it goes away. but i have a feeling you had a long game in your head somewhere along the way. did you?

well, well, i know like it's impossible to have a career with our ups and downs. there's no way you can, no way, nobody completely just keeps going up, keeps going up, keeps going up. and if you're lucky enough to be in any career 20 plus years, i mean, scuse me, you should be thankful for that and never low in entertainment. so it's almost impossible to be an entertainment, and i have the ups and downs, but i think it's long as you keep your wits about it and you stay grounded as far as you know, consistently trying to evolve. what can you do? i mean, look at you, you, you know, you like, brother, i'm very good. what year i, i've had shows shot out from under me man. and it does happen. the one thing i think is unforgivable is if you look too needy or you start sweating or you look like you need to get back in to zealously. people are like, well will bro, brother, you're going to show, i don't leave that vibe. i think if you handle your ups and your downs, with a suitable degree of a plumb people come back around t,

i think that co quotient matters a lot, man. yeah. as long as long as your long as your work speaks for itself, man, i've had great fans that supported me since day one. and i've been privileged enough and blessed enough to make some music back. that's kind of, you know, we stand in a low chest the time, so you know, that always helps. well, well listen, i know they did their original role. i but i'm hoping that i know the super bowl sometimes blows people's minds when they have somebody unexpected. coming on. i'm cross my fingers, brother. at halftime, you can walk it out as the added. guess you don't have to say anything, but i'm looking at that app. i'm sure there was one that nelly, kidding me. i'm so excited for dr. j to that whole l. a. set up is going to be crazy man. a very, very well deserved. they don't, they don't kill it. i know, but i'm, i'm hoping somebody out there from nfl central, which is pretty square building is listed in because if you have no walk out halfway through that, i don't know. i'm telling you the place will go. absolutely. so i hope somebody's

watching a tell me about the 2021 b t, hip hop wards, the i am hip hop ward. certainly a few people can make claims that you're one of them. tell me, tell me what i felt like that. and i'd rather must have been growing it. amazing, amazing like you, like we mentioned it, it does seem a little double that sort of little bit because you know, here they are honoring you all your work and everything. but it also, it also reminds you that you get know, you know what, i'm looking at all the young man and all the and all the new acts. and i, i can remember being in that seat looking up at looking up at the podium. and some of the people paved the way for myself, you know, and you just feel a little different about it. but when i was looking out, it was just amazing man because you know, you get a lot of congratulations, all of the youngsters. i'm happy to pay half of my didn't even know they weren't.

but how, how i've influenced them and how, you know, they're excited to be there on my day and, you know, and things like that. and, you know, it just makes you feel good to know that you made a good impression. did you get choked up at all, brother, or was it? did you get shelter? you weren't going to lie. i guess it was the hip hop was you know, i had to hold it together here. pop was you got to be like, you got to have the swag. no, you don't want them. can i was a squeegee at the hip hop, poor brother. you know, man come on, started out of it, not q p o may cry. there, bro, you know, there is a roland at heart lead. you're not going to see me guy got on here and get a bit. tell me about heart lad, man. well, hard land my, my new project. i don't call it a country album. i call it country and switched. i say that out of respect for

country music, country music, artist and everything that they go to live to create their music. but what i notice from the time that i've been in my been in his career from the time i dropped country grammar, i received all kinds of love from all john, who's of music. and i was getting booked at a country bears and, and some rodeos and things like that early on in my career. and i didn't understand what was happening. i thought it was happening to everybody, but it wasn't, you know, one day i would go from a show of being on a show with a big country headliner. and the next day i would go do a show and d, m x is in line it. and it's just like, and i'm singing the same songs in the same music. so i didn't understand at that time what was happening. but i knew it was some special and come to 2004. i was able to manifest that into something like over and over again with my man tim mcgraw. and that was huge. and i started to understand now and appreciating the love that i was getting across all the channels of music. country music was one,

the whole world of country just opened their arms up to nellie from a certain point. and this was this album here, this project here is my thank you to country music for allowing me, you know, be in that world just all love that they show me from country radio to the artist, i think is the hosting. i think it's a blessing, nelly. i mean, when you think about a brother, you know, crossover sounds like such a contrivance to me because it sounds like there's too much effort to do that. the stand a stride to charles and it's almost about numbers your seem to happen more organically to me where you just said, listen, i'll try this to mcgraw's another artist he wants to wants to take a few minutes off from work it out and cut, laid down some, some music with they will try it and i think people since then said ok, he isn't targeting, this is for gwen. this is just to artist come together work. i dug that feel about that song. yeah, thank you. thank you. yeah. and shout out to tim to because he took a great chance as well as a, you know, taking part in the song because who knows,

you know, it could have with either way. and at that time he was still tim mcgraw, one of the biggest touch on the planet. and here he was, you know, leaving it to this wrapper to come up with a song that, that, that they're both of them could in use. and man, he came out. great. so i'm always thankful for him for allowing me to take that chance. yeah. i know to me. but in when he started going to his chest with the wrap move, you know, like i certainly could look, you know, i met with those checks. we don't but was a pretty so you you know what nelly. his old man tug was a great pitcher for the mats and i think that locker room medicine, philly's i think being raised by tug mcgraw and being in a locker room watching men of all colors, all backgrounds pulling together and trying to win something. i think the fuse that whole travel bomb for him and i think he just was looking for good people and. 3 it will be a little better on for that's the way the world worked. yeah,

and we made good music man. so in terms of great guy, fate is why i have beautiful, beautiful people. i'm proud to have was friends, are right, which i can. and nelly, we're having a good time and we're going to come back. we're going to peel back on the new heartland laurel as their attendance tour. we've got a little bit of music serious. we got a whole bunch of stuff to talk to with st. louis is finest, nelly right up to this one. dennis miller plus one with ah, these people learn from their own experience. how vulnerable of business is to the bank. so you push my business over the age, pushes me right to the bankruptcy. now i realize we will go this isn't

just the back that may be involved in this is the concept. see, firms is the lawyers. these people have got you want other stories at a walk kind of whistle blower. tell people's marriages have broken up, lost their family homes, it is spectacularly devastating for people's lives. they have committed suicide, but left behind north. the explicitly state that it was the constant intimidation and grueling by buying coff resource that late them to i took the spring. it's obscene, these people up nor sold policy makers to the federal reserve bank and joe biden. the president thinks america has so fricken stupid that they can make them believe that picking up a worthless, shiny round object. and going hocus pocus over it magically turns it into

a trillion dollars that that again, can deposit that at the federal reserve or the treasury to somehow mitigate that $300000000.00 debt crisis. oh when i want shown the wrong one, i just don't move any new world yet to shape out disdain because the attitude and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. right? ah,

[000:00:00;00] ah hey folks, welcome back to the dentist miller show dentist, bill plus one. and there were welcoming nelly to the show today. you know, 3 time grammy winner recently honored with the america status or that the 2021 b t. hip hop wards for is 22 years and the music business, and i'd say within another 10 years he'll be approaching the halfway point in his career. his latest album, heart lad,

is now available where you buy your music and tell me about the album. seems like such a i don't know what i say, album the, my kids, they look at me like that. what are your visitors from another play? i don't. how many, how many songs are formatted on an album? now what would tell me about the composition to the album now we, we got 9 on here, so i get it. i get it. i said cd not too long ago to my son and he was like, cd yet were okay. you know? but yeah, is 9, we may my good, good, good, good. well, i like to call country club bankers. you know what i mean? not explained. explain the time to my brother. i'm a gringo. explain that term to me. i country country club, bankers. i mean, well it's like, it's is, it's a nelly record. so nelly album, but it's country influence. so it's almost like what country meets the club. you know what i mean?

and i like the single out one of the singles i'll call little bit feature in jail florida. and i saw a little bit thing which is almost double platinum shots are those guys are phenomenal guys. you know, she and i like family to meet. so, you know, you can listen to that record, you'll get exactly what i mean by that. and the guys, and it's so funny to watch my brothers open up white cats when i watch them in, or they're all styling with move and dad in between tour buses and everybody knows what i'm saying. and that is what beautiful thing about the times we live in is when i 1st went down to south by southwest with my kids. and i saw how our kids, who are outsiders, kids who are insiders, black, why? there's a whole generational thing happening, van, where people are starting to weave together in the one unit. i know there's still a strange mentor. yeah. the power of hip hop rather the power of the apartment, and now it gets center f g o, you know,

those guys grew up listening to hip hop music. i love listening to hip hop music. and it's almost like hip hop is the only john music that literally touches probably every other genre of music because you can't be like 50 years and younger and not like some type of, you know, i have some time now it may not be all the way to, to parking biggie, but you might like, or will smith or somebody, you know, you like run the b o l who j r l e r m, and m or, you know, it's just, it's just that power that music man that brings the people together and all of the kids now. i mean, yeah, i know me on to something called mad villainy. i was, i'm from left field man, i'm a square and i was thinking i was thinking, oh, this is really interesting. so yeah, it does open up. you know, it's interesting to me, nelly, as i watch, ken burns is documentary on country music. 16 brilliant ours. 6 man, and at the beginning the, these people were the outsiders. they were, they were thought of as the hicks live in,

out in the sticks. they were the ones who were outside the loop. and so i see a natural affinity between blacks and country music people because they both have felt what it's like to be the other. there's some shared dialogue there, man. well, you know, crunch country music judicially as you dave back, you know, it's, it's, it's a lot to believe that, you know, comes from almost slave music comes from the african americans have was somewhat the banjo is actually an african african american institute. yeah. so, yes, so yeah, i mean, you know, a lot of the music got made, an american comes from african americans as far as the beginning of the fingerprints all over at brother. and i remember there was a beautiful partner where nashville, let's face facts nashville at that time. did have some red next, but i remember they had this little cat who played harmonica in and he would play

that rocky mountain. the. busy wow, that it's a banjo song and he was welcomed in right away and they have pictures. im sitting with these cats who traditionally you would think would be they would be oil and water. but one of my men lot is art forward. i can't remember his name, it's about of me to bring it up and not know his name, but it was a groovy part or i thought, oh, there were some hip turned on people back them because they, when my man showed he could play, they welcomed him in, i'm not trying to make it all nice. i know it's been idiot ville for many years in this country, but that part was sweet. where i said, maybe the music will start to bring and cats together. now how do you go from your in the rap group saint lunatics which i love the name. i hope you came up with that name back when because that such a funny name and yeah, but it actually came from a buddy of ours. we were trying to find a name and he was like, maybe you guys are like a bunch of lunatics and like that and now yeah, that's kind of how we came up with that name saying, hey, let's give his name because i was just giving you

a proper that were doing what was his name? his name is called tat. they was sad. we just call them jack. he was a st. louis, rapper wrap. and before us we were young. we were much younger and he gave us, i'm a really, really do, may rest in peace. ok, so the proper were given though to the right man. so you're in the group and i know that there's probably real bonding there. you guys are tight and eventually somebody has to break out your the story so many times in music that they give you their blessing. how were they? were they cool when you step up? yeah, i think it was one of those situations where, you know, it was, it was, it was a little bit of up and down as a little, little bit of understanding, but also a little bit of competitive lives. i mean i'm, i can't say that everybody was as excited, but we all were accepting of the move because we, at the end of the day, we all knew that this was probably the best move all of us. but i can't say that

everybody was 100 percent, not happy with what i could pay that everybody was at least 70 percent and i end up about to move. so you can ask for brother and group endeavors. that's all you can ask for. when you step out and you're on your own, do you come across the path of somebody who's willing to help you? who's a bigger name at that point? who were some of your mentors? well, no, we 1st got one. i didn't have, i didn't have a co signer, you know, a lot, a lot of people when they come in here pop, some people can get co signers like or they have famous producers bring them in. or, you know, somebody puts their arm around them or give them a chain and know i, we didn't have that at all. wow. and it was, and it was tough because, you know, we come from a place like st. louis from the mid west is not really known for its hip hop, his hip hop artist and challenge. so yeah, i kind of got thrown into the deep end of the pool and was told to swim man. and you know,

we've been back stroking their assist. beautiful babies notify. love that. listen. let's face facts at the end of the day. once you get out of the womb, you have your mother for life. you off times are a load. so why should music business be at a better brother? you gotta, you gotta keep your head on a swivel that you don't know what out of march a lot is coming up on your hand and the whack. i had to throw down the are to let a reference for the st. louis cad. out of math. you remember what i remember watching isaac bruce and tory hole one night they had beat up was of a team so bad that isaac was running down the sideline. the only cab next to him was tori running alongside of the score like an 80 or touch the i said under. 2 mike, they had 2 guys beaten people deep there, there were a hand them the greatest. so what sort of man,

great time. a lot of times and it's crazy. you said that because i was just with orlando based last night. you were big. yeah. man, he's, you know, he's buddy of mine it, we were here, one of i lose cigar bars that we like to go to over at the ritz in clayton and the great chicago one of the best. and you know, we hang out, we watch football and depends on what's going on. so yeah, i still get to hang with a few of those guys in there and watch. marshall faulk is one of my big brothers. so i'm always talking to, to 8 man not, you know, i, i'd say he's the greatest run back to ever do it. so, you know, i'm a little biased. wow. listen, brother, when you put all the tools together, he's like marcus allen, the cat would pick up a blitz and just drop people in the hole outside of berry sanders at the said, never seen a smooth flag marshall faulk receptions. hit the hit the inside around here, the outside run the complete package. complete package. a hello football. sorry

ah, these are the full people who pulled the trigger and survive something on survival . one of la harness things that i had to face was not counting a face at a low expectation. a life i accepted that i accept the fact that i made that it's where we had no fears. dell change pretty fast for shots. different stories behind the bullets. oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation, whole community?

are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. i'm a c on the internet that allows old b. rollers on much was to invite everybody's lloyd. it's not wasn't a glitch. that was good feature that the people who designed the internet is all in as
