Nelly professed a love for kicks on his ’02 hit record, Air Force 1’s, and the St. Louis emcee is at it again with Stepped on My J’z an ode to his Jordans, as well as to those who may not watch where they walk. On the new single, the three-time Grammy winner teams up with Jermaine Dupri, who handles the production and spits a sneaker-loving sixteen, as well as Ciara, who lends her vocal skills and recognizes her own adoration for J’z. Each Jordan “aficionado” rhymes about their collection, how they keep it clean, crisp, and cool, and creatively they bring back memories of school shopping in September to impress haters and classroom crushes alike. Nelly’s new album, Brass Knuckles, drops on June 24.
Listen to Nelly's Stepped on My J'z ft. Ciara & Jermaine Dupri More songs from Nelly
This track has a bumpin thick bass beat to it. Nelly sounds aight on here. I'm not hating on this at all. The chorus is catchy and the beat has a good swagger to it. J.D. spits OK on here. This can go into rotation!
This song is hot! Better than air force ones in my opinion. This is kind of song you can sing with your friends and have a good time, it's a feel good party record. I really am feelin Nelly's kind of new style, this song is a BANGER
Nelly does good on this and the production by JD is sick, the chorus is purely catchy and I know everyone will be re-saying the lyrics allll the time now...this will bump at every teenage party and JD does good with the rapping on this too. Ciara sounds aight but Im not a big fan of her addition to this song. The part with Nelly after Ciaras part is just like dem jeans/grillz
I'm feeling this, the fast few Nelly exploits have been really mediocre. But this more along the lines of quality I expect from nelly. Has the right names attached to this track with the big beat in the back.
I couldn’t care less for tracks when rappers go bragging. If you’re gonna do that, the beat better be banging, the lyrics smart and the flow appealing. Nelly has been lacking them all. Ciara made it worth a star.
in ma opinion i liked AIR force betta cuz it waz more catchier to me. Lol @ Ciara y is she on dis track she sound out of place. but dis song all together is iite.
LOL STEEPED ON MY JZ LOL! ( I REMBER WHEN THAT HAPPENED TO ME IN DA CLUB ) :P HAD TO FADE SOME 1 DAT NIGHT :/ U NO I GOT TO GET MY JZ AND DUNKS O YA AND VANS :P GREAT SONG THO :P
Sneakers are sneakers. The last time I spent more than $100 on sneaks it was 15 years ago. I rather spend them on a nice pair of shoes. The beat is nice. I used to wear my J'z to play ball--what they were made for and not for styling off the court. Everyone has their style. Beat is nice.
Personally, Ciara ruined the track..the beat is a rapper's paradise becuz of how bumpin it is..and the singing killed it...JD and Nelly flows were aight...
LOL. This makes me laugh. It's a cool song, but I absolutely have to agree with donjonjon this track does sound dated. I never thought about Nelly's music like that but it is SO true.
This may be a little out dated 4 nelly! I get the feelin that he's tryin to hard this go round. The Production is cool, but I thing Nelly needs to try goin the luda role and let his music mature. He's too old to be singin bout shoes! I want Nelly to hit us with something better, however Ciara kills this!
Def. a BANGER! the beat was tight with the club clap mixed in it. This song is clb ready defintely gonna make a splash on the scene. Plus i hate when dudes scuff up my J's in da club lol
