Nelly vs the Cure,score draw

Rap star Nelly's new single is brought to you over the Cure's 'Lovecats'. Now in the past some rap tracks have done this kind of thing and delivered. The only good thing Puff Daddy ever did involved ripping off Led Zeppelin, Eminem made Dido famous by sampling her on Stan (Which was miles better than anything she ever came up with). This however does not deliver, and while it does get going occasionally - like when Nelly shuts up and a woman takes over the microphone - it basically sucks.

Ah well. At least MTV makes a change from CNN.
