Number 1 (Nelly song)

1

"#1" is a song recorded by American rapper Nelly. It was released on August 29, 2001 as the lead single from the soundtrack to the 2001 film Training Day. It was also included on Nelly's second studio album Nellyville (2002). The song was most known for igniting the feud between Nelly and KRS-One, for which KRS-One perceived it as a diss for being too similar to "I'm Still #1" by his group, Boogie Down Productions.
