Nelly links up with Nicki Minaj and Pharrell on his brand new single “Get Like Me,” produced by Pharrell. The drum-patterned track, reminiscent of a classic Neptunes production, is set to appear on Nelly’s upcoming album M.O.
Fresh off her collabos with Wale, Ciara, Mario, and Busta Rhymes, Nicki keeps the momentum going, adding a playful verse. “Bon voyage, Nicki M. Baby, Buns Minaj/ Back of the ‘Bach slumpty, Humpty Dumpty/ On the back of the bike, these stunts be comfy,” she raps.
Pharrell adds his golden touch to the hook, singing in his raspy voice, while Nelly talks slick over the thumping beat.
M.O. is due later this year featuring appearances from Nelly Furtado, Trey Songz, T.I., and Wiz Khalifa.
