"It's Getting Hot" is a single by American rapper NLE Choppa from the deluxe edition of Cottonwood 2. It was released on July 27, 2023 with an accompanying music video. Produced by Draco, Project X and Superstar O, it samples and interpolates the song "Hot in Herre" by Nelly.

Background

NLE Choppa teased the song and its music video on July 25, 2023,[1][2] which was set to be released on July 28 but wrote he would release it earlier if the post received 10,000 comments.[3] The song was released the following day on July 27.

Composition

The instrumental of the song is a modified version of that of "Hot in Herre", with deeper bass and sharper snares in the drums. The lyrics deal with similar topics to that of the original song, though NLE Choppa performs in a different flow;[4] he also sings the chorus of "Hot in Herre",[5] which are followed by vocally reimagined female background vocals.[4][5]

Reception

The song was met with mixed reception from fans. Nelly expressed approval of the homage, reposting the video with a comment "Go Up Nephew".[1] In contrast, the song also received adverse criticism on social media.[2][6] Millennial writers Alex Suskind and Hershal Pandya of Vulture debated the merit of NLE Choppa's remaking of "Hot in Herre".[7] Choppa appeared to be unbothered about the negative reactions, even responding with laughing emojis[3][8] and confident comments.[9]

Music video

The music video sees NLE Choppa dressing like Nelly in the "Hot in Herre" video, wearing a headband, A-shirt, baggy jeans, a Hardwood Classics Denver Nuggets throwback jersey, A Bathing Ape sneakers, and a band-aid under his eye.[1][4][5][2][8] He is seen surrounded by bikini-clad women at a pool party,[1][5] and rapping in the booth as he reads from a Danger Hiptop phone. It also features a woman swinging her hips, with "NLEVILLE" (a reference to Nelly's album Nellyville) printed on her buttocks.[5]
