Fans Help Nelly Pay Off Tax Debt By Incessantly Streaming 'Hot In Herre'

Ain't nobody got fans as thoughtful as Nelly. The rapper, who will be headlining the highly-anticipated RNB Fridays mini-festival later this year, reportedly has over USD$2.5 million of tax debt to pay off and his dedicated fanbase have found an ingenious (albeit, far-fetched) way to help him pay it off.

Stream Hot In Herre over and over again on Spotify, of course.

As Spin reports, Nelly has a federal tax lien equating to $2,412,283 as well as debts of $149,511 to the Missouri Department Of Revenue. They figured out, though, that roughly 402,880,500 streams (at the very least, if Nelly earns the bare minimum of $0.006 per stream from Spotify) will help him pay off the whopping amount. 

Naturally, his fans have gotten to work to #SaveNelly and have been doing their part by playing Hot In Herre as many times as humanly possible — on repeat, on mute, you name it.

Are we the only ones who thinks this is heartwarming?

If "Hot in Here" ain't the No. 1 song on @AppleMusic or @Spotify by tomorrow then we as a collective have failed Nelly. #SaveNelly

I'm over here trying to pay Nelly's IRS bill while my bills continue to stack. Don't ever call me selfish. #SaveNelly

Deadass tho, put "Hot in Herre" on a loop while you're sleeping, with the volume down. Teamwork make the dream work. #SaveNelly
