Wow. Let’s give a standing ovation to whoever decided to curate this line-up, which may be the biggest throwback hip-hop tour to hit Down Under in years.
Having just sold 10 million copies of his classic album Country Grammar – and becoming one of a handful of rappers to earn a Diamond certification – St. Louis’ own Nelly is coming back Down Under to perform in Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and Melbourne. Last time we saw Nelly at Supafest, his set included an AC/DC interlude and all 373552 of his hit singles. It was a nice time. However, that’s not all – he’ll be joined by R&B queens TLC, Mya and Blu Cantrell! Huge!
Still, that’s only half the lineup. Remember Fatman Scoop? Of course you do, because ‘Be Faithful’ is the most overplayed club track of all time. He’ll be there alongside 112, Montell Jordan, Blackstreet and Kevin Lyttle. And last but definitely not least, Dante Thomas of ‘Miss California’ fame will be performing. It’s going to take a few minutes for you to wrap your head around this lineup, but just breathe and remember half these artists who soundtracked your Year 12 formal.
Tickets will be on sale from Thursday September 8, so get your facial band-aids and baggy jeans out in preparation for a jovial stroll down memory lane:
