THE comeback single?
Spyke
There are a few artists who after being at the top of their game, just continue to release material but only receive dwindling degrees of success with it (like R Kelly and Bon Jovi), Nelly seems to be one of them. Ten years ago he came out as a major player in the US with 'Country Grammar' then maintained considerable success for about 5 years, even daring to release his albums Suit and Sweat simultaneously in 2004 (and taking the top 2 spots of the Billboard 200 with them). Since topping the singles chart in that era with Over And Over and In My Place, we've heard little from him. However this could be his return to form, with the cross over appeal of this track could be quite the global smash.
The song will debut on the Hot 100 next week somewhere in the top 20, and should climb quite a bit higher as this radio friendly tune catches on. My favourite lyric has to be the line 'Tryin to get my usher over, I can let it burn'. They'd be foolish not to give this track a chance over here as it would have no problem going top 5; maybe even #1 on a quiet week, but with a busy release schedule and the X Factor live shows starting soon we're not going to have many of those coming up.
Chart Predictions:
Spyke 3
McLovin -
Actual 8
