Recently, Nelly made the bold claim that he thinks his time during his dominance in hip-hop was the toughest time compared to the other eras. He said, "Country GrammarΒ sold five million and I didnβt even get nominated as Best New Artist! Because my album came out in 2000 so I wasnβt even on theΒ ballot. In 2001, the great, talented, well-deserving MissΒ Alicia KeysΒ wonβand she should have won." He continued, "You gotta understand, my era of music was the toughest era in Hip-Hop ever.Β Ever! When I put out songs, I had to go againstΒ DMX,Β JAY-Z,Β Eminem,Β Lil Wayne,Β 50 Cent,Β Luda. All of us are fighting for one spot! So from β99 to 2008-2010, itβs the hardest era ever to get records."
Why do you disagree with Nelly's opinion?
