Hot in West Texas Spring Bash with Nelly and Paul Wall

If you have spring fever, this might be the cure. Hip-hop star and Grammy winner Nelly will bring his landmark hits to Midland this weekend.

From the beginning, Nelly was a standout with his debut “Country Grammar” in 2000 and the No. 1 “Nellyville” in 2002. The latter also was nominated for Album of the Year in 2003. Along with the Grammys for “Hot in Herre” and “Dilemma,” he would go on to win at the Billboard, American Music and BET awards.

The Austin-born rapper has also ventured into films with “The Longest Yard” and his own television show, “Nellyville.”

He headlines the show with Houston-based rapper Paul Wall, who is known for his critically acclaimed 2005 debut “The People’s Champ,” which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard charts. Also debuting at No. 1 was his follow-up, “Get Money, Stay True.”

Wall has kept Houston close to his music, whether dropping a mixtape with Slim Thug for the 2013 NBA All-Star Game in Houston or naming his 2016 release “Houston Oiler.”

4 p.m. Saturday (rain or shine) at Cimarex Pavilion, 5514 Champions Drive. $25 advance, $35 door. All ages. Ticketfly.com.
