Rapper Nelly is not the first artist to release two albums at the same time, Outkast (Speakerboxxx / The Love Below) and R. Kelly (Happy People / U Saved Me) for example already preceded him, but Nelly thought it was necessary in contrast to the above. CDs to be released separately: Suit and Sweat. The distribution is thematic: Suit is the hit parade pop album, slick and smooth, Sweat is the 'hip
… hop party' album, tough and danceable. The question is whether Nelly's plan is sensible. If the songs of Suit and Sweat had been on a double CD together (Sweatsuit!) (Or a selection of songs on one), this would have become a varied album, now the listener is left with two CDs, each of which offers little variation. And when a choice has to be made, Suit, with his sweet pop rap, will probably not make it to the CD player. Not that there are no good songs on it, but it quickly gets boring and Sweat is just better. What the CDs have in common are the large number of guest appearances, including Jaheim, Pharrell Williams, Snoop Dogg, Ron Isley, Anthony Hamilton, St. Lunatics, Christina Aguilera, Fat Joe, Mobb Deep and Missy Elliot, and Neptunes each. -production. Nelly's Sweatsuit project is a nice idea, but next time I prefer one disc. (IV) but next time rather one disc. (IV) but next time rather one disc. (IV)more
