Nelly will be honored with Soul Train’s Sammy
Davis Jr. Award for Entertainer Of The Year tonight in Pasadena, California.
The rapper joins The Beatles and the Bee Gees
by garnering two consecutive and simultaneous #1 singles with "Hot in Herre"
and "Dilemma," an accomplishment that hadn’t been achieved since 1978.
Nelly received two Grammy’s earlier this week
for Best Male Rap Solo Performance for "Hot in Herre," and Best Rap/Song
Collaboration for "Dilemma," featuring Kelly Rowland.
Nelly is promoting "Pimp Juice," the
fourth single from his 5 times platinum album, Nellyville.
"’Pimp Juice’ is anything that attracts
the opposite sex," Nelly said. "It could be money, fame or straight
intellect. Whatever you use to get ahead at whatever you’re doing, that’s your
‘pimp juice.’"
Benny Boom has been tapped to direct the video,
which will hit television in March.
