Nelly’s Most Popular Songs Ranking [2025]

Call On MeJanet Jackson ft. Nelly8rank/position

I Ain’t Mad At Cha (ft. Danny Boy)

It’s a single by Janet Jackson.

The song has a somewhat mellow vibe, and there are many remix versions.

It’s a track that encourages a friend who’s feeling down and gives them a push—a song that radiates powerful friendship.

While it’s a friendship song, I think the same message can apply to lovers as well.

It’s a piece that reveals the strong bond between best friends who know everything about each other.

Nelly is not only a rapper but also an active actor.

He’s a rare type of rapper with a past of dedicating himself to baseball, nearly making it to the major leagues.

His debut song is “Country Grammar (Hot Shit).” While the 2000s are generally associated with the new school, this track—released in 2000—leans more toward an old-school vibe.

Nelly – Hot In Herre (Official Music Video)

It’s a party anthem bursting with hot club energy, expertly blending rap and R&B.

Released in May 2002 by American hip-hop artist Nelly, the track is defined by its funky beat and catchy melody, spending seven consecutive weeks at No.

1 on the Billboard charts.

Produced by the duo The Neptunes, it drew attention for its innovative arrangement that samples a classic by Chuck Brown.

Perfect for school sports days, dance performances, and cheerleading routines, it’s guaranteed to unite the entire venue in excitement.

My placeNelly11rank/position

Nelly – My Place (Official Music Video) ft. Jaheim

I’m singing with Jaheim.

This song is also one of my top ten—it’s really good.

I thought the title could be taken as “Come back to me,” which sounded cool.

It’s a pop R&B love song.

I like the overall vibe, of course, but I especially love Jaheim’s cute-sounding voice.

Ride Wit Me ft. St. LunaticsNelly12rank/position

This is Nelly, a popular MC known for rapping like he’s singing.

This track, included on his debut album “Country Grammar” released in 2000, is one of Nelly’s early signature songs.

It’s a very satisfying track with rap that’s easy on the ears.

Spaz OutNelly13rank/position

Nelly – Spaz Out

This is a classic track where Nelly’s uplifting vocals shine over a powerful four-on-the-floor beat.

Despite its steady rhythm and consistently high-energy vibe, the bass-driven arrangement never feels noisy, making it a track that lets you focus purely on strength training without any unnecessary fatigue.
