Overview
- Nelly revealed the project on Dec. 15 while hosting the Black and White Ball in St. Louis with Ashanti at The Four Seasons.
- The album would be the group's first release since 2001's Free City.
- Metro Boomin, a fellow St. Louis native, is set to oversee the record after recent executive-producer duties on Young Thug’s Business Is Business.
- Internal dynamics remain in flux after member Ali Jones withdrew a copyright and unjust enrichment suit this year, and Nelly’s team later sought sanctions.
- The onstage reveal came during a philanthropic night that included a full-ride scholarship for a local student and a Make-A-Wish trip for a 4-year-old.
