Nelly and Ashanti are gearing up for the star-studded wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, with Nelly embracing his "Swiftie" status. A trailer for their upcoming show, "Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together," reveals the couple heading to the event, though not without a brief marital disagreement over forgotten lotion.
The second season of their reality series promises a glimpse into their relationship beyond the wedding festivities, featuring appearances by artists like Fat Joe, Ja Rule, and Jadakiss. It also showcases Ashanti's significant move to re-record her music masters. This endeavor aligns with a broader conversation about artists reclaiming ownership of their work, a movement notably championed by Taylor Swift.
Ashanti has publicly expressed admiration for Swift's actions, seeing her as an inspiration for women in the male-dominated music industry. Nelly and Swift share a personal history, with Nelly having performed alongside her on tour and describing her as a "little sister" with potential to be one of the greatest female artists.
The season will also delve into Nelly and Ashanti's experiences as parents to their son, Kareem, and their decisions about publicizing their family life. "Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together" is set to return to Peacock on November 19, 2026.
