Nelly says he regrets his 2002 ‘MTV Cribs’ appearance.
The ‘Hot In Herre’ rapper recalls the time “MTV Cribs” pulled up to his home in St. Louis: “People Were Pulling Their Boats Up to the Dock”
During an appearance on The Cruz Show, the St. Louis rap legend was asked if his MTV Cribs episode from the early aughts was real.
“Hell yeah,” Nelly responded at around the 11:20 minute mark, adding that he eventually had to sell his home because people figured out where he lived. “It was the worst thing I did, being on MTV Cribs.”
Nelly explained that while people didn’t know his address, they put two-and-two together.
“[MTV Cribs] showed a plate because I had my name engraved on it,” he said of the home, which was located in Lake St. Louis, a suburb of St. Charles County, Missouri. He explained that his home was the first house by the lake, and he had a “prime spot.”
“When we did it, I’m thinking this is my end all be all. Now, I’m not knowing that [the St. Lunatics are] just getting started as a group and we were going to keep having success and things like that,” he said of his 2002 episode.
