Album Review

One of the wiser re-releases of the 2005 holiday season, Nelly's "Sweatsuit" compiles the best moments of his "Sweat" and "Suit" albums from a year earlier, and it adds four new songs as well. The end result is the album that should have been released initially -- from a consumer standpoint, at least. Of course, especially savvy listeners made their own Sweatsuits, using iTunes to resequence the best songs from "Sweat" and, in particular, "Suit" into a solid, well-balanced, smoothly mixed listen. Those people won't have any need for this official "Sweatsuit". The new songs are unexceptional (and not entirely new, some of them available elsewhere) and the sequencing is poor (frontloading the singles and randomly scrambling the rest, which makes for a jagged flow). But for those who don't already own "Sweat" or "Suit", "Sweatsuit" is an economical means of picking up the many highlights of those albums in one purchase. It's a wise re-release, and one wishes it would have been available a year earlier for the sake of cash-strapped fans who felt ambivalence toward the prospect of buying two spotty, relatively brief albums when a single-disc, 80-minute one like this would have offered more value. In any event, the release of "Sweatsuit" is better late than never, not unlike an apology. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
