It’s “Going Down Down Baby” as Nelly rides with Hard Rock Tulsa Sept. 18
TULSA, Okla. (May 12, 2026) — With more than two decades of shaping the sound of modern hip-hop while crossing into country, pop and beyond, three-time Grammy-winning artist Nelly is taking a ride from “St. Louie” all the way to Hard Rock Live inside Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa on Friday, Sept. 18 at 8 p.m.
Since his breakout debut, “Country Grammar” in 2000, he has delivered a multitude of chart-topping hits, including “Hot in Herre,” “Dilemma” and “Ride wit Me.” In addition to the albums “Nellyville” and “Country Grammar” reaching RIAA Diamond status, the single “Hot in Herre” continues to be one of the most commercially used songs in history, featured in campaigns from Burger King to Lays Potato Chips.
He’s also generated collaborative hits, including “Party People” with Fergie, “Gone” featuring Kelly Rowland and “Body on Me” featuring Akon and Ashanti. His album “Heartland” peaked on Billboard’s Top 10 Country Album Charts, while “Cruise” with Florida Georgia Line became the best-selling country digital single of 2014.
Known for pushing boundaries, Nelly was among the first hip-hop artists to successfully blend genres, notably with the hit “Over and Over” featuring Tim McGraw. His crossover success continued through collaborations with artists including Taylor Swift and Justin Timberlake. His versatility has also led to performances with major orchestras and global touring success.
Beyond music, Nelly has built a diverse entertainment career spanning television, film and sports media, with appearances on shows like “Dancing with the Stars,” “Real Husbands of Hollywood” and “Nellyville.” He is also an entrepreneur and philanthropist, supporting initiatives such as Make-A-Wish and providing scholarships and music industry education for nearly two decades.
Fans can expect a high-energy performance featuring the hits that have defined generations, along with the signature charisma that has made Nelly one of the most enduring entertainers in the industry.
Tickets start at $89.50 and go on sale May 15.
