Our sources say the STL rappers had been blindsided by the swimsuit and are nonetheless tight with Nelly — they usually proved it on one of many greatest phases in music!!!
Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and Metropolis Spud joined Nelly throughout Sunday night time’s 2024 American Music Awards, the place they carried out a tribute to the evolution of hip hop.
Chingy, and Shaboozey‘s inspiration, J-Kwon, had been there too. It is nonetheless a Midwest swang … simply with out Ali!!!
We broke the story again in June … Nelly cashed in simply 50% of his classic-filled catalog, and there isn’t any query Ali believes he is entitled to a few of that cash.
Final 12 months on VladTV, he unloaded the chopper and emptied the clip at Nelly, accusing him of drug use, stealing, and general being a awful buddy after they began within the rap sport collectively.
However now it seems like Ali will not have his fellow St. Lunatics alongside for the courtroom battle.
