Nelly - Move That Body
Producer: Dr. Luke and Bangladesh
Album: Nelly 5.0
Label: Derrty/Universal Motown
With lead single Just a Dream, Nelly succeeded in cracking the Billboard Top 10 and got the gears turning for the release of his fifth full-length. Secure in the knowledge of a job well done, the St. Louis hitmaker’s gathered a couple of his closest friends for a celebratory jaunt to the local spot. Of course, when you’re a rap superstar, ogling hotties at the club isn’t just a good time – it’s research. The product of Nelly’s night out is tentative single Move That Body a club-banging tribute to the seductive power of asses in motion. Backed by Dr. Luke and Bangladesh‘s stark synth groove, the headliner calls on all all ladies “21 and older” to forget about their boyfriends and shake what God gave them. Fellow appreciators of the female form, T-Pain and Akon handle guest duties, the former showcasing his trademark studio wizardry on the hook and second verse, and the latter topping it all off with a melodically-flowed closing contribution. So, readers, would this joint make a worthy-follow-up to Dream? If you’re digging it, you’ll most definitely want to grab a copy of Nelly 5.0 when it hits store shelves Nov. 16.

I was a fan of "Just a Dream," and look where it has headed since its Booth feature, but I cannot get into this record. Its not meant for the computers speakers (paging the club) and I understand that... but even in the club I would find this annoying.
Nothing against Pain or Kon, but nothing Nelly could do over this beat would make it enjoyable.

I have to disagree with DJ Z here. I think this has just what it takes to be Nelly's next big single back on his way to the top. Pain's hook is banging, and Akon's verse is catchy as anything. Nelly gives the song some traction in the club, and the beat's something new. Wayy better than Nelly's previous club single "Tippin' In Da Club"

Nelly starting to head way to close to pop radio for my liking. Im more of a fan of his more urban tracks (Grillz for example).
This isnt something I would play, but if i heard it in the club after a couple of drinks id prob hit the d floor for a minute. 2.5 |

Dr.Luke has been behind some of this years biggest pop tracks (Inc. Dynamite, Magic, California Gurls and all of Kesha). Understandably Nelly would want in considering his new-found pop success. Unfortunately Dr.Luke dissapoints. The beat fails to captivate and is a poor effort. In theory this song could've worked... I'll stick to "Just A Dream"

I expected more from a collaboration with these superstars. Its sounds like it was made using a Toys-R-Us music machine and lyrics are so generic that I forgot what i just listened to...Oh move that body...thats it.

This was pretty damn weak. The beat was wack, and the chorus was annoying. This is Garbage... and I can't believe with all this talent, they still didn't pull off a hit.

I did not see "Dream"s success coming, so maybe I'm missing something again, but I'm just not feeling this. This beat just doesn't do anything, it just kind of sits there.
Nelly will probably be laughing at this comment when this is a top ten hit in a few weeks, but I don't hear any real future in it.

I don't like this. It just seems like he wasn't really trying and just made something quickly. Akon was good though. He brought it up to two stars.

The beat is underwhelming and the guests are just all right. Sub-par.

This song just isn’t that appealing to make it a hit. To be totally honest I’ve already forgotten what it was about.

What is happening to Nelly? It's like he lost all his creativity as an artist. His delivery is still on point but he has no lyrical content anymore. He is tarnishing his career.
