The St. Louis native naturally looked to his own Derrty Entertainment stable of stars for this collection. One of the most notable talents appearing is St. Lunatic Murphy Lee, who contributes the thumping cut "Stomp" alongside King Jacob and Prentiss Church. Nelly himself even pops up on a number of tracks, helping with the heavy lifting on W.C.'s very Dr. Dre-like "Whip Yo Ass" and collaborating with Jung Tru and King Jacob on the electro-funk jam "Errtime."On other tracks, Nelly looks to different corners of the hip-hop world, recruiting Houston mixtape king Chamillionaire and his running buddy David Banner to bring plenty of attitude to the swaggering "Talking That Talk." Atlanta rhyme merchant T.I. also pops in with the slow-rolling "Bounce Like This." The most notable contribution, however, comes from D12, who appear with their mentor Eminem to serve up a double-entendre-laced track carried along by a deftly utilized "Peter Gunn Theme" sample.
