The comeback would be their first since 2001.

Overview

  • Nelly revealed the project on stage at his 2025 Black and White Ball in St. Louis, stopping the program to make the announcement to an enthusiastic crowd.
  • The release is positioned as the group’s first full album since Free City, which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and is certified platinum.
  • Which original members will appear has not been confirmed, a lingering question after Ali’s royalties and credit lawsuit against Nelly was filed then dropped in April 2025.
  • Key details such as label backing, a track list, and a specific release date have not been disclosed.
  • Metro Boomin’s executive producer role follows recent No. 1 projects with Future, raising expectations for the St. Louis collaboration.
