This is turning out to be a top 3 vladtv interview of the year

[@BKEFilmsUS]

I thought Nelly was very clear about what he said and it was all in response to Ali. I think Murph respects Ali so much that he can't hold him accountable. He's the only one who jumped out with accusations and old grievances. Nelly simply defended himself and told his side of the story.

[@url0veang3l]

Nelly was very clear. I definitely think Murphy Lee tries to be the neutral since he's the youngest.

Gotta make Murph a regular. I feel crazy for not paying attn to what dude had to say over the years. Super intelligent and accountable.

[@trevorbailey730]

Much respect to Murphy Lee for speaking his peace in a clear and concise manner without insulting Nelly and his other band members.

[@andreford857]

He hit the nail on the head, the problem is Nelly sells started to decline and didn't know how to tell his crew that he needed to down size a lot of his expenses. I was in a group before and one thing that I seen was once we went from recording and coming up with dope material just for the love of it to becoming a bussiness and having to record for a mission to come up with songs at industry standards aimed at top positions on the charts.I also noticed that each member in the group had a sub crew too, pushing for each individual group member. So we went from four friends with a common intrest to having an entourage so big that confusion caused the group to collapse.

[@FromMemphisToYou]

When Murph said it's cool for homies to have disagreements or even flat out arguments and still remain homies, find a solution, and get pass that shit I feel him 100%. That was always the problem with my crew. Either we tip-toed around shit or we went too hard. We never found that middle ground. The tip-toeing brought about resentment that lead to the major blowups about small shit.

Damn one of the realest clips on this channel. For an artist to hear a group member’s gripes and not get defensive but actually empathize and understand where they’re coming from, I don’t think i’ve ever heard that. Lol takes a lot of self-awareness and egoless reflection to admit. Enjoyed this interview 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Tampamontana]

“I felt like, he felt that way” basically he was putting hisself in Nelly’s shoes. That’s real

[@wanmontana0385]

I wish these guys would give us another group project. I remember first seeing Nelly during BET uncut late nights and just feel in love with the song then the group. Like Murphy said communication is key and I hope these guys can work the issues out and give us some dope music or at least a reunion tour.

[@cynthart83]

I'm glad each member could stand alone and had solo careers. Something that stood out to me is Murphy and Kyjuan left to do shows without the tics during their decline, but could Nelly do shows without the lunatics without there being a problem? I can see why Nelly would feel like they are a liability, they treated him like an employer when the money was good. Nelly carried the cost of running the show and they could come an go as they pleased. When did the group ever run a show and employee Nelly as a guest feature.

[@TingTong2568]

I disagree on your last point. When it comes to the tics, they are all employees of their own respective ways. It wasn't like St Lunatics feat Nelly or sort. With all said, the group only had one album. The rest was just Nelly feat St Lunatics or Murphy Lee feat St Lunatics. But overall I get your point though

[@cynthart83]

That was kind of my point it could never be St. Lunatics ft Nelly. Nelly could never do a solo tour without the group because the other members would feel salty and talkin down on him. Murphy said he did his own shows. He could have let Nelly get some show money without the burden of the business of producing a show.

@@TheBoyyWonder100 I said this before on another post about this. If Ali is the hit making song writer star maker then why didn't he just take his talents elsewhere and either make himself a star or snatch up some random 15 year old and write him some more hits? The answer is because Nelly was the star and Nelly continued writing his own hit records after Ali while Ali sat around crying.

[@cornellbrown8489]

I totally understand Murphy Lee point of view.. but Nelly hit it on the nail. Ali interview proved nelly Point especially with him. Ali was all over the place and you can tell it was jealousy that he feels Nelly career should be his. Ali in my opinion is the source of the problem! His behavior over the years shows his bitter about Nelly career. But Nelly in his interview said Murphy Lee went out and did his thing without him. The problem was the fans and industry can’t separate Nelly and the st lunatics, because Nelly was the star. But you can tell by Nelly actions he wanted the whole team to win. If you listen to Ali interview you can see why Nelly feels the way he feels.
