Nelly Visiting Mankato in October

Pop-rap star Nelly released his first album back in 2001 and he's been going strong ever since. With eight total albums to date, Nelly is no one-hit wonder. He's had several songs reach the upper echelons of the charts, most notably "Hot in Herre," which garnered him the 2003 Grammy Award for best male rap solo performance. In total, Nelly has had four songs hit number one on the charts.
