With its dynamic genre-shifting between dance music, folk, R&B, and Latin stylings, Whoa, Nelly! introduced the songstress as an eclectic pop presence without comparison. She notably wrote and produced the entire body of work, establishing her vision from the jump with anthems like “Hey, Man!” and “Turn Off the Light.” Originally released on October 24, 2000, the album achieved a double-platinum certification from the RIAA, while Nelly garnered a total of four GRAMMY® Award nominations in 2002, going on to take home “Best Female Pop Vocal Performance” for the platinum single “I’m Like A Bird.” The record’s tracks have also gathered north of 1 billion total streams and counting to date.

Among the newly added material, Whoa, Nelly! now features an Acoustic Version of “I’m Like A Bird” as well as Dan The Automator Mix of “Shit On the Radio (Remember The Days).” Plus, it showcases the early foundation of her legendary collaborative partnership with Timbaland, boasting “Turn Off The Light (Timbaland Full Mix Version)” [feat. Ms. Jade & Timbaland]. Check out the full tracklisting below.

In retrospect, FLOOD Magazine praised, “Her low-key style of fame is, by design, a feminist statement that can be traced directly back to the self she exposed on Whoa, Nelly!: an artist who stands firm in the belief that no person should be reduced to a one-dimensional front.” SLANT christened it: “A refreshing antidote to the army of pop princesses and rap-metal bands that had taken over at the turn of the millennium.”

Last month, the global superstar performed her iconic hits for her Tiny Desk Concert which was instantly deemed a must-see performance across social media and by Billboard, Buzzfeed, and Rolling Stone. Her acoustic set, performed by some of Furtado’s closest collaborators and creative directed by her daughter, included her multi-platinum and GRAMMY® Award-winning hits, her rare remix of Missy Elliott’s “Get Ur Freak On”, and her brand-new single “Love Bites” feat. Tove Lo and SG Lewis.

Released on May 22 alongside an interview with Zane Lowe, “Love Bites” has amassed over 8.6 million streams to date and has received worldwide critical praise from Billboard, Rolling Stone Italy, PAPER Magazine, Wonderland, The Line of Best Fit, Rolling Stone Germany, CBC, Stereogum, CLASH Magazine, EUPHORIA. Magazine, UPROXX, more.
