[Ashanti] Previously onNelly &
Ashanti: We Belong Together...

It's his 50th birthday!

[Nelly] With our lives
moving so fast...

ATL, what's happening?

...it's not perfect.

What about where KK's
gonna go to school?

If it was in New York,
it would be amazing.

[Nelly] I'm not living
in New York.

[Ashanti] Big Head wants
to live in St. Louis,

because his mom and kids,

and that's where he runs
all of his businesses.

But there's no other city
that compares to New York.

We do have to talk
about Christmas.

Maybe we'll go
to New York for a few days.

Well, it's gonna be tough.

Definitely wanna have
Christmas in St. Louis.

[sighs]

-[knocking]
-I'm comin'!

[Nelly] We're back
in St. Louis now...

Can I get a hug?

...with both families getting
a chance to come together.

I don't get nothing either.

You can't force it.

[photographer] Let me get you
two, right here, that's perfect.

-Yo, everybody.
-When my dad and Ashanti

first got together,
I didn't really place her as,

"This is my dad's girlfriend."

It was more of, like,
"This is Ashanti."

But now that I'm older,
we're like, friends now, too.

[Nelly] I am relaunching
Apple Bottoms Brands.

We are about to shoot
some online content.

But I don't think
we had the right idea yet.

[Yvette]

[man]

I don't think the creative

was where I wanted it
to be, basically.

This ain't the Vibe
magazine show.

We just need some press, man.

This shit about to be over.

[dramatic music]

Come on, DD.

[Yvette] We're good, I think.

[man] Hey, quiet on set.
All phones off.

[Juliette]

Okay. So, when I say that,
am I looking at the camera?

[man]

Okay, cool.

We're relaunching Apple Bottoms.

I try to be as hands-on
creatively as possible.

Yo, what up? This is your man--
Three, two, one.

Yo, what up?
This is your man Nelly,

and we're behind the scenes
at Apple Bottoms photo shoot.

Shout-out to all the models
that took place, and took--

and participated in what's going
on-- Ah. Three, two, one.

Yo, I wanna send
a special shout-out to, uh...

I hate saying "um" in the middle
of saying some shit.

When we launched Apple Bottoms
the first time,

social media was non-existent.

So, we have to get
acclimated to learning

how to use social media for
Apple Bottoms the best way.

The creative director
says it's not working.

[Nelly]

[Yvette]

No, I don't mind doing it.

I just mind sitting there,

when nobody's understanding
what's going on.

That's the problem I have.

You wanna be respectful
to everybody you talking to,

but you also wanna make sure
that they understand,

and you assert your vision
as clearly as possible,

because, if anything,
this is your brand.

This is your baby.
This is what's representing you.

It's like, "Yo...

yo, Apple Bottoms
is relaunching 22 years later.

I hope y'all ready."

Do you know how much
the brand meant to people when--

You know. You don't like
that one? Okay, it's fine.

No, well,
I don't know what it meant.

[Juliette] And then, so the
re-visioned Apple Bottoms,

what can people expect?

I wouldn't say--
I wouldn't say a re-vision.

[Juliette] Okay.

I mean, I don't mind
giving these answers,

but I hate giving
generic answers.

You see what I'm saying?
I like giving answers that, um,

only I can give, because only
I've been in that situation,

because it is personal.

[Juliette] Can we ask
what people can expect

from today's Apple Bottoms?

[Nelly] I would rather
you ask Yvette and Dot,

-from a design aspect.
-Understood.

They're more into
the design, and--

and the femininity of the brand.

Now, you don't want
no man asking about

the femininity
of a woman's brand.

It looks more genuine
than asking somebody

who's looking to make 100 mil
and fuckin' sell.

Being in an environment
that I'm not cool with,

and not seeing the vision
that I want at the time,

I'm someone that is
definitely going to start

regulating some shit.

Obviously I'm in it
for the paper.

-Right.
-It's a man with a women's line.

Like, you're setting me up.

[energetic music]

Where you going, stinky? I said
where you going, you stinky man?

-Hey, y'all.
-[Ashanti] Uh-oh! Acey Papa!

[Chanelle] Ooh, he about
to get loose, okay?

-[Ashanti laughs]
-[Chanelle] Come on, baby.

-[Ashanti] Hey!
-Come on.

You wanna see your uncle?

Uncle, what's up? Hi, boo-boo.

-Hi, Mama.
-Mwah! How are you?

I feel like it was
really important to spend

some one-on-one time with Nana.

-What's up, man?
-Oh, my God.

Nelly's kids were so young
the first time around.

Obviously now, with them
being, like, full-on adults,

the goal is to just grow
and continue that relationship.

Let's see if I can hold with him
and hold his hand.

Acey, you wanna go for a walk?

Come on,
let's go in the playroom.

[Chanelle] Okay, see you later.

How crazy is, like, me and you
being moms at the same time?

You know what I'm saying?
Like...

It's crazy.
I'm grateful for it, too.

-And then both boys.
-Yes!

You know what I'm saying?
I'm saying in my boy mom era!

Period! And when I say
that's what it is, it's an era.

It's definitely an era.

It's crazy that
it's, like, 20 years.

Like, we 20 years in,
which is nuts.

Do you remember
our first encounter?

Because I can't remember
when we first met.

I do. I think I do.
I had came down,

and it's sad,
when Jackie had passed.

Mm-hmm.

The first time I met the kids
is when Nelly's sister,

Jackie, passed, unfortunately.

I loved Jackie. You know,
she was, like, the sweetest,

most amazing, and she, like--

you know,
she accepted me, you know?

I felt the love.
You know what I'm saying?

-Good, okay.
-And, um,

so when all of that
stuff happened,

I just remember that day,
it was just, like, a lot.

You know what I mean?

With the funeral
and everything happening.

But that's when I met y'all.
And Tre was super, super little.

-[Chanelle] Little!
-[Ashanti laughs]

-'Cause we five years, so...
-[Ashanti] Yeah.

I feel like-- If I can--
What, like, 12, 13?

-Probably.
-'Cause I was old enough to,

like, sing your song
word for word, so.

You know? Did you see my room?

I came in your room,
and I was, like,

"Oh, she got posters of me!"
[laughing]

Okay, I'm, like, "Yes,
she got all the fire music."

-I love those posters.
-For me, I was just like,

"Oh, my God,
I'm gonna meet his kids."

-Mm-hmm.
-You know?

So I'm, like,
for me, it's, like,

"Okay,
it's getting serious now."

-Right.
-So when I came to the house

and I saw the posters,
I was like, "Aww!"

You're like, "I'm good."

No, yeah,
that would've gave me the ease.

-Like, "Okay, I'm good."
-[Ashanti] Yes.

I mean, we weren't really
talking about marriage

during our first year, like, the
first time we started dating.

But, you know, when someone has
kids, you know, it's a package.

You know what I mean? So it was
a little different for me.

It's hard in the industry to
just find someone that's genuine

and that's authentic,
and that you, like, click with.

You know what I'm saying?
And I feel like with us,

it was, like,
an immediate chemistry.

And then being here
so many years later is just,

like, when things
are meant to be, it will be.

I love how my dad came
and, like, made that entrance

of, like, "Okay, it's time."

It's inspiring, because I do,
I wanna get married one day.

-Good.
-I do.

Right now, I'm single,
but I'm ready to get married,

if that makes any sense.

I don't like to say
what people's fate is,

or what they think
their fate is,

but when I saw my dad
extending the olive branch

on the Verzuz, he went to go
get what he wanted for the now

and made it for the future.

If you wanna be married
and just have that bond

and that union
and have that stability,

and that sense
of someone protecting you--

-This-- It's me.
-Yeah.

You know what I'm saying?
You deserve it, you know?

It's just,
it takes the right person.

Look, I hope it don't
take you 20 years, like--

[both laughing]

Thank you! But if it do,
it's worth the wait.

[Ashanti] Right!

[energetic music]

All right,
that's all the questions.

And then we're gonna
do some sound bites.

And I'm cool with that,
but if these are our questions,

we need to reshape them to where

nobody else can be asked
these questions.

-You know what I'm saying?
-But I love your--

We're not at odds. I'm just
telling you how I'm thinking,

-because...
-[Peter Paul] Totally.

-You want it to be meaningful.
-[Nelly] Exactly.

You know, you want
your team on board,

because when everybody's
excited about a project,

then they put forth
the best effort.

So with relaunching the brand,
I love to stay positive,

thinking that, "Yo, it's
gonna work, it's gonna work."

-[man] Is that good?
-[man 2] Yeah.

[Juliette]

[man]

[Juliette]

Okay. Um...

what I think people can expect
from today's Apple Bottoms

is having a brand
that celebrates

all women of shapes and sizes.

We were definitely, um, ahead of
the pack when we started this,

and hopefully we can continue
to grow and, um...

[Yvette]

[man] Done. Got it! Hey! Hey!

[all cheering]

[Nelly] Okay.

[Peter Paul]

[Nelly] Thank you.
Appreciate you.

[Peter Paul]

-We just have a quick question.
-Mm-hmm?

We wanna be able to do
a shot like this tomorrow.

[Nelly] That's the baseball?

[Yvette]
That's the varsity jacket,

-and I ordered some boots.
-[Nelly] Damn, man.

I should've got y'all into
the, um-- the baseball setup.

I should've got y'all
on that fuckin' field.

I don't know if it's too late.
Donta!

Donta worked for the Cardinals.
They love him.

Real quick,
hate to use you like this,

but we got a little baseball
jacket scene with all of this.

Can you call just to see
if there's any way possible

we can get the field
for, like, 30 minutes?

-[Donta] Tomorrow?
-Tomorrow.

If you can get her
sitting on the mound

or sitting in the outfield,

the way that type of pose,

with the stadium
in the background,

with the baseball jacket.

If we can do it at night,
I think that would be dope.

It's dark, you got
the lights up there. Yeah.

-[Peter Paul]
-[Nelly] Yeah.

What works for Nelly is
just thinking outside the box.

Okay. For how long?

[Nelly]

To be able to get
into Busch Stadium

and use it as a backdrop
for our product

would be like a dream.

[Donta] I've got everybody.

Perfect. Okay.

Hopefully we can
make that happen.

[energetic music]

I wanted to tell you, you know
how close we all grew up,

like, me, little, Shawn,
Sydney, and Tre.

And when I think about our kids,

I want y'all to be
at least halfway as close

as we was coming up, you know?

And I'm sure with you
traveling and working hard,

I mean, like,
you probably got so much time

-where you like...
-Baby.

I don't know how y'all feeling
about staying in St. Louis

or, like, you know,
being at a distance,

but if they grow up together
and if we got that opportunity,

you know, that'd be dope.

I definitely would love
for them to stay in St. Louis

for our kids
to grow up together.

Being children of celebrities,

you need people around
that just get it.

KK got a couple of cousins
and friends up in New York,

and obviously we got family,
you know what I'm saying?

So it's hard to--

I don't even know, like,
where we're gonna end up.

What makes St. Louis beautiful

is there's so much
family down there.

It's a lot of love.

So when you have that,
you really feel protected.

But at the same time,
New York City is one of the most

powerful, most amazing cities
in the world.

And I'm just not ready
to make the decision.

[dramatic music]

Uh-oh.

["Ode to Joy"
by Beethoven playing]

We were able to basically
get Busch Stadium. [laughs]

It's surreal to be here--

Yeah, and I was just about to
say, you know, I don't know--

This is a hell
of an electric bill.

[Michelle laughing]

[Nelly] I'm thankful
that I have good friends

and people who have
been supporting me

for a long time now.

St. Louis, you know,
we got the Cardinals,

and everybody knows
I'm a huge baseball fan.

It's one of the best experiences
with me and my mother,

'cause she taught me the game,

took me to my first baseball
game, and all of that.

So to be able to pull this off,

that's a big move, and
I don't take it for granted.

All for you. It's all for you.

-No, it is, it's all for you.
-No, I appreciate it.

-Don't be shy about that.
-No, definitely.

[Michelle] So whatever
y'all need while you're here.

We gon' get in, we gon' get out.

[Mike]

[JD] Love that, love that.

Y'all look great,
y'all look great.

All right, and looking.

I like that.

And on my knees,
and on my knees! Okay, oh!

[Nelly] Shouldn't be.
There you go.

-Whew!
-All right, all right,

guys, come on out, we got that.

We got to get this shot
in the field.

-[Nelly] Skyline is better.
-Okay.

That way, 'cause you got
the corner at the Western,

and I'm just saying,
like, where would you--

[Peter Paul]
I would put it ahead.

Because ain't nothing
back that way.

No, no,
so we put her right here.

Just to cut these lights on
is quite a fee.

So I wanna make sure that we
are not out here lollygagging.

We're getting the shots,
we're getting 'em fast,

we're getting
what we need to get.

Go out!

[Nelly]

All righty, let's do it.

When I get blessed,
I do not overstay blessings.

[energetic music]

That's how I'm showing up
at Thanksgiving.

With a tray full of ice.

[Leslie] Speaking of, what are
we thinking for Christmas?

[Tre] I think about time
we all go take a trip

down to New York.
What y'all think?

I wouldn't have a problem going
to see the Rockefeller tree.

Yeah, what y'all doing?

[Tre]
We trying to come to New York.

We're just trying
to see what's up.

[Shawn] We ain't never been
around New York for real.

Like, really seen New York.
We trying to see New York.

[Ashanti] Well,
when y'all trying to go?

-[Shawn] Now.
-Now? Oh, my God. Now.

What you talkin' about, now?

[Chanelle]
He talking about tomorrow.

[Tre]
He's trying to go right now.

[Ashanti] I mean, it depends.

Like, if you're trying
to go around Christmastime,

it's the tree, New York City,
Rockefeller Center.

All of that is crazy.

You just trying to go clubbing.

What are you--
Where you kick it at?

Well, see, that's different,
'cause where I kick it at

and where y'all kick it at
is gonna be so very different.

[Chanelle]

-Exactly.
-Please know that one, too.

I'll enjoy a nice,
big Christmas tree.

Everything's big
in New York, right?

Yeah, I think Christmas
in New York would be dope.

Being with Ashanti's
side of the family,

it'll be a first time for that,
so that'd be fun.

[Shawn] And I just wanna
walk through Central Park.

Yeah, Central Park.
It's beautiful.

-[Tre] Listen to the vibes.
-[Ashanti] Radio City Music--

-Radio City. All of that.
-Yeah. The tree is amazing.

I'm with it. What did Dad say?

[Shawn] Nothing.
It don't matter now. You got it.

You got it. What you mean?

[overlapping chatter, laughter]

Now, if the kids love the city,

maybe I can get Nelly to spend

a little bit more time
in New York.

Well, I'm down. I think
y'all should definitely come.

We're gonna see
if we can convince Dad.

[Chanelle] Yeah, let's do it.

[energetic music]

All righty.
You got eight minutes.

[JD] Give us the look.
Give us the look.

Looking good. Nice.

[Nelly] I want to keep
St. Louis in the conversation.

And what conversation?

Any conversation that has
anything to do with business,

entertainment,
growth, opportunity,

me loving the city that
helped me become who I am.

That's the goal.

Yo, all right,
three girls, my three girls.

-Let's go.
-Yep.

Rolling. Yeah, we're rolling.
We're rolling.

-We're rolling. We're rolling.
-One more walk.

-Get them walking back.
-[JD] Gotta set.

[Nelly] These boots
weren't made for walking.

[Peter Paul] Love it, love it,
love it, love it.

Come back.
Yo, yeah, we only need one more.

[Nelly] Fast.
This has gotta be fast.

[woman] There you go,
right there.

I think we got it.

[Nelly] There you go.
That's it. We out.

-Yeah.
-[all cheering]

[Nelly] I think the shoot
went great,

and I'm truly happy

because I don't know
exactly what it's gon' cost

to turn them lights
back on again. [laughs]

[*]

[Jennifer] Whoo! Hi, girl!
Look at you. You look so good.

-Thank you. Thank you.
-How are you?

I thought this would be cute,
because it says "Empathy."

[gasps] I love it.

So now that Nelly is done
with his Apple Bottom shoot,

I can borrow the office
for a few hours,

so I can do my promos
for my new movie, No Address.

-You don't understand.
-I do understand, girl.

-I'm like, I'm rushing home.
-'Cause you have a baby.

I have a baby. I try
and do my makeup real quick.

I gotta clean my glasses.

Well, and they act up when
you decide you're gonna eat,

get ready, or go somewhere.

[Ashanti] Can I see 'em on--
Perfect.

[Jennifer] Yeah, there you go.

[Ashanti] We got a rubber band
or something over there?

You would ask the bald girl
if she has a rubber band

or a scrunchie.

I am always on set with Ashanti,
watching the monitors.

So if a piece of hair
is wrong or the lipstick

isn't right or something
is wrong with the wardrobe,

I gotta make sure,
because they're not only

dedicated to Ashanti, but I am.

[man]

Mmm, I don't think so.

Wait, I see one little thing.

See, you shouldn't
have showed me.

[Tina] Never ask again.

[upbeat music]

Should I do this or is this,
like, wrong,

since everybody wanna use it?

As long as I ain't
double-dipping.

That strawberry cake?

[Tre] That's what I wanna try.

[Ashanti] Oh, that's
your favorite, isn't it?

That thing fire. Well,
it depends on who made it.

[Shawn] We tried
her strawberry cake.

Now we get to try
your strawberry cake.

Mmm, see that moistness.

Dad, how long y'all here?
Y'all here for a minute?

Yeah.

What you mean? Y'all acting like
I don't see these motherfuckers.

Two of 'em owe me some money.

They-- I don't know if
they really wanted to see me.

No, no, they got to pay up, man.
You know what I'm saying?

I come in like
the I, the R, and the S.

No, I'm just saying. [laughs]

Call him, call him, call him.

-[Tre] Dad.
-Dad!

[Shawn] He act like
he don't hear y'all.

Come on, unc.
The kids wanna go to New York.

Who paying for the tickets?

[Nelly] Not me.

Daddy doesn't have
a problem saying no.

Whereas I'm always
gonna try to make it happen.

See? And you wonder why
kids with mom over dad.

Because Dad is going
to think more rational. No.

[Shawn] All right, well,
let's do it. Come on.

Gonna blame it on them.
Watch this.

For Christmas.

Y'all over 21. Y'all can go
wherever y'all wanna go.

[Tre]

Oh. Oh, man.

-Oh, come on.
-[Nelly] No.

[Chanelle]
Daddy already know y'all lying.

Who lying? We ain't lying.

So y'all don't
wanna go to New York?

-You can have a conversation.
-[groaning]

-What that is?
-We'll see.

They're 30, 27, 33.

Like, if the motherfuckers wanna
go to New York, they can fly.

They can go anywhere.
They're adults.

Okay, 'cause I done
already told somebody

before all this happened.

-Who you tell?
-Him.

I told Ace what was happening.

[Shawn] Ace,
you ain't put us on...

-[Ace babbling]
-[Shawn] Yeah, I see. Okay.

[all laughing]

[upbeat music]

Pow. It looks good.
Look at your waist, ma.

Let's just do a mic check.

[Ashanti] Hey, hey, hey,
one, two.

Thanks for watching No Address.

Camera speed. Speed.

We want you to join
our efforts to help break

the No Addresscycle
and really make a difference.

You might be wondering,
how can I help

in being part of the solution?

So I'm super excited about
my new film, No Address.

I'm actually
an executive producer on it,

as well as playing a character.

My character's name is Violet.

I did have a real job.
Protecting this country.

And I am an ex-veteran who
gets addicted to painkillers,

which is very, very different.

This is a role
I've never played before.

Head over to NoAddressMovie.com

for a list of our nonprofit
partners working tirelessly

to end homelessness
across America.

I'm happy to be
a part of this film

because it's creating awareness.

It kind of puts things
into perspective.

At the end of the day,
the reason we made this movie

is to create
a movement together.

Giving back is an important
part of our family values.

We wanna make sure that
we do what needs to be done

for people that don't
have opportunities.

Ashanti has always had a heart
for being a philanthropist.

We can be the solution.

Let's work together
to break the No Addresscycle.

[*]

Get her, man!

[Shawn] That's my plate
over there!

-[Ace crying]
-[Shawn] Uh-oh.

[Nelly] No, don't do that.
Don't do uh-ohs.

"Uh-oh" make 'em think
something's wrong.

-[Chanelle] Mm-hmm.
-[Nelly] He tired?

Yes.
My baby's sleepy, he hungry.

I think I'll probably finish
breastfeeding in maybe,

-like, a year or so.
-[Nelly] A year?

I just wanted to
see your reaction.

[scoffs] Please,
darling, please.

I get why the moms
are still doing it,

but I see how that looks
on the outside end,

-and it's a little off.
-[Nelly] Yeah.

-He's standing up.
-[Chanelle] He's grown.

-Yeah.
-[Chanelle] He talking.

Yeah. But, um, how are you?

-I'm doing good.
-[Nelly] Yeah?

-Yeah.
-Yeah, being a mom.

Motherhood.

It's, like, your first year
or so in the can.

-Yeah.
-What you thinking?

'Cause you got
a lot more of those.

I know, right? You see me
take a deep breath first.

I love it, though, Dad.

Of course you do.
You're great at it.

-Thank you.
-You're great at it.

[Nelly] No, but you are.

Trying to be prepared.

I know y'all didn't really
have time to get prepared

at 17, 18 years old.

Mmm. Yeah.

That's, like, no time to even
process for real, you know?

No, because you're
still a baby yourself.

I mean, you know,
when you're 19 years old

and you're having a baby,
it can definitely be scary,

but I knew I had somebody
that depended on me,

that needed me to step up.

I don't wanna sound like no
superhero or no shit like that.

Know what I'm saying?
I just did what I had to do.

-I mean, you still alive.
-Y'all did it.

-You turned out.
-[both laughing]

-Look.
-Y'all did it.

We did not burn the house down.

-[Chanelle] That's it.
-Amazingly.

[Chanelle] Okay.

Does marriage
feel different, Dad?

Just, like,
the official headline of it?

[Nelly] 1,000. It's like
supporting your spouse,

no matter what it is.

I honestly think
I just want the big boom.

I don't know what that means.
What's the big boom?

The wedding.

Well, that's not good.

That's not good,
'cause you could throw yourself

a party then
and come out a lot cheaper.

[mellow music]

[phone chiming]

Hi! You look cute!

How are you?

[Lorraine]

Tell me whenever you're ready.

In the middle of the shoot,
I get a call from Lorraine,

and we're talking about
Nelly's diamond wedding band.

But I am gonna have something
made and custom that I think

is gonna be really dope,
but it's running a little late.

[laughing]

We got married
shortly after the engagement,

so there really wasn't any time
to go get a wedding band.

[Lorraine]

Oh, 'cause see how my-- Look.

And I want it to say the same.

-[Lorraine] Yeah, so we can--
-I-- I heart--

[Lorraine]

Okay, perfect.

[Lorraine]

Thank you!

Mwah. Love you! Okay, bye.

[Tina] I'm so proud of her,
because she's a multitasker

in terms of her business
and her personal.

With the love, respect,
the time, effort,

energy that she puts
into Nelly and the baby,

she has really worked on it
over the last few months

as if she was born to do it.

All right, I'm out.
I'm gonna see my baby.

* My baby, baby, baby, baby *

[*]

Of course you wanna
get married one day.

I mean, it's everything.

You're talking about
to death do you part, right?

But it's not with being
a girlfriend or a boyfriend.

When you be a boy,
you know, y'all date.

Y'all don't connect.
If you don't want--

No, I want the partnership now.
The commitment, yeah.

You said, "I think
I just want the boom."

With the word marriage, but you
know I want the relationship.

Relationship is still
commitment, you know?

Would you count that
as the same commitment?

That's marriage.
Being a girlfriend

and being a wife
is two different things.

-Commitment-wise?
-Everything-wise.

People get into
a girlfriend-boyfriend

relationship and say,
I'm committed to you.

This is-- We riding this out,
like, this is to the end.

-And--
-Sound good.

This is what this looks like.

Sound good.
Do you know the expenses?

Who's paying for what?
Where do y'all live?

Do y'all live together?
That's very possible,

but you still have an option
to pack that shit up and go.

Nana wants to do
a lot of things.

That's the beautiful
thing about my baby.

She's very, very talented,

and she can go and do
anything that she wants to.

What I don't want her to do
is to rush into thinking

that she will be
looked at differently

because she's not married.

If she marries somebody,

I definitely want her to feel
like this person completes her,

this person supports her,

this person has
her best interest at heart,

and she has that person's
best interest at heart.

You get married,
you're not thinking about

packing that shit up
and leaving.

You might leave,
go downstairs, get on the couch.

-Right.
-[laughs]

Oh, that's--

But your ass is comin' back.

Being close to my dad
is definitely a blessing.

I feel like all little girls,
grown women,

need some type of relationship,

and, like, what we have
right now is a great vibe.

[Nelly] Think about it.
Ain't no rush.

The goal is to die married.
It's not to have been married.

-Yes.
-'Til death do you part.

So, that means either
I'm going to jail or I'ma die.

What? No, that's rude.

-I know.
-That's rude.

-All right.
-That's real.

Well, let me know.
I'll be around

if you wanna
shoot the shit some more.

-Yeah.
-All right.

-Love you.
-Love you, too.

Grab your daddy a beer
or something.

-Got you.
-Yeah.

I think as a father,
you in that watchdog mode,

because I take providing

and protecting my family
very, very seriously.

I take that job very,
very, very, very seriously.

[Ashanti] I love that we're
able to make our family work,

and find time for each other

and the things that are
important and still get the bag.

-And we try to balance that out.
-Balance it out.

Yeah. It works.

[Nelly]
He look like his ass itchy.

He lookin' itchy booty.

[Chanelle] Daddy, stop.

-[Nelly] Get him right.
-[Ace crying]

Next time onNelly and Ashanti:
We Belong Together...

The kids definitely
wanna come to New York.

-The kids wanna go anywhere.
-[Ashanti laughs]

Talking to Ashanti,
We were talking about

where we were gonna
spend Christmas at.

But I thought about it.

I didn't wanna take you
away from Granny.

[Ashanti] All the pregnancy
rumors are starting again.

People are turning in
just for that, I think.

There's a lot of rumors on the
internet about a second baby.

[Nelly] It was
Black and White Ball night.

The Black and White Balls,
not-for-profit

that we've been doing
for some time now.

[Ashanti] Hair and makeup
will be quick.

And I got to get my nails done.
Oof.

We're a little worried
that it's starting to get late.

She said, "Babe, what can I do?"

Can we please go
a little bit faster?

[Nelly] I said,
"Sweetheart, only thing

I need you to do is be on time."

Lot of money was spent.

Big Head is so mad at me.

He's never gonna
let me live this down.

[Nelly] Jesus fucking Christ.
