Nelly Discusses Dr. Dre Studio Session, Possibly For “Detox”

    St. Louis, Missouri based rapper Nelly was recently in the studio with Dr. Dre.

    Recently sitting down with Vlad TV, Nelly was asked about his studio session with Dre and what project the two were working on. He hinted that they were working mostly on Dre’s album.

    “Just ideas he was gathering, I guess for Detox or for whatever project we were doing,” Nelly said when asked if they were working on Dr. Dre’s long-awaited Detox album. “We were basically vibing out.”

    Nelly also said the two were creating ideas together for use on each of their projects.

    “We were just coming up with ideas,” he said. “A lot of times you may just be in there collaborating and seeing whatever comes up. So the ideas we were doing were just random ideas and things that we were coming up with–certain things he may use on Detox, certain things he may use (otherwise). Dre works in mysterious ways.”

    Nelly Speaks On The Mesh Of Country Music And Hip Hop 

    During the interview, Nelly also addressed fusing Country with Hip Hop.

    “I think people are looking at things wrong when they try to do that,” he said when asked about Hip Hop and Country music collaborating. “It’s not about one music embracing another, it’s about fans that appreciate the collaboration. It’s not about Country music embracing Hip Hop or Hip Hop embracing Country music, that’s not what that’s about, it’s for people that like the collaboration.

    “Everybody’s not going to like the collaboration,” he continued. “Everybody don’t like R&B mixed with Hip Hop. As funny as that may sound because you see it happen all the time, everybody don’t like it, and it’s the same thing with every genre of music. It just so happens that that came together and we had a lot of people that supported it.”

    Nelly has had endeavors in the Country music scene. Aside from his 9-times Platinum-selling debut album, Country Grammar, featuring themes of country life, in April he was featured on a remix of the highly popular single “Cruise,” by Country music duo Florida Georgia Line.

      1. I actually laughed out loud at your comment hahaha!

        I’m not even waiting on Detox anymore, I’m waiting for Dre to die so that some poor fucker can milk a posthumous career out of releasing all the shit that’s been recorded for Detox over the last decade. You know it’s gonna come one day sooner or later someone is gonna dig up the thousands of tracks and start selling them.

      2. Yea whoever gets hold of dre’s music vault will be releasing that shit for decades ive also given up on detox hes prolly had 4 or 5 finished versions of the album but changed his mind at the last minute.

        Don’t think dre wants to deal with criticism from ppl saying it aint a classic or if it don’t sell loads when hes making hundereds of millions selling headphones

    1. Didn’t read.

      But Nelly on Detox? Really?

      This dude needs to go back to doing shitty music and sucking dick. Better not lay his dirty hands on a legendary album like detox

      1. While he making moves, you worrying about if he got a neck or not. lol. Faggot ass nigga,
        you Jimmy the Cricket suit-wearin’ ass motherfucker;
        you short Colin Powell haircut, havin’-ass motherfucker;
        you Little Angela Davis moustache…wearin’-ass motherfucker!
        you Richard Pryor shortcut, fade-havin’-around-the-side wearin’ motherfucker!
        You little Sammy Davis award Junior afro-haircut- havin’-ass motherfucker!

    2. What a faggot. Show a little more respect for the legend you piece of shit.

      It would be any rappers dream to be in the studio with Dre. And This guy better not be on Detox if it ever comes out. Shit ass rapper

      1. Well that wasn’t even a joke, you just repeat what everybody understood the first time, your comment was useless as fuck

    3. Come on, Nelly. We all know you the topic was it possible to sell 15k on a major label, while you were a multi-platinum selling star like a decade ago. Oh, and about that cheap-ass, ugly, unfinished tattoo you had on your forearm. Shit looks like it has been made by some random homeless crackhead with a prison-made tattoo set …

      1. There’s one thing you forgot. Drake, Birdman, Wayne, Tyga, Rick Ross, Meek Mill, and Chief Keef will all come out to the world before detox does.

    4. DETOX WILL COME OUT THE SAME DAY KANYE DOES. DAMN IT, STOP IT!!! IT’S OVER! NO DETOX, JUST HEADPHONES UNLESS THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT DETOX HEADPHONES!!!!

    5. before I saw the bank draft 4 $8857, I didnt believe that my brothers friend woz like they say really bringing in money part time at there computar.. there sisters roommate has done this 4 less than 19 months and recently cleared the mortgage on their home and got themselves a Renault 5. useful content>>> http://smal.ly/U5a97

    6. Detox is never going to get released, the longer he takes, the longer we expect an amazing album and it probably won’t live up to the hype, I remember on Game’s “The Documentary” album he said “look out for Detox” on one of the tracks, that was like in 2005! LOL

      1. Eminem also said on encore (both album and song) “Don’t worry, Detox will arive.” That was in 2004.
