Nelly is less than a month a way from relaunching his popular Apple Bottom clothing line that rose to prominence in the early aughts.

After teasing the brand’s return earlier this year, the St. Louis superstar confirmed to TMZ that he will be relaunching in November.

In a statement, Nelly said: “Our goal as a brand remains the same: celebrating ALL women, all shapes and sizes. We have amazing new styles and are ready to shake the fashion world again … we’re back!!!”

He also confirmed to the outlet that they’ll be using new technology to “give the jeans that stretchy form-fitting feel and inclusive size ranges.”

In his personal life, Nelly recently welcomed a child with Ashanti. Last week, he threw her a surprise birthday party and then shared footage of the moments leading up to the surprise in a sweet social media post dedicated to his wife.

A recap video captured the couple as they got ready to attend what Ashanti seemed to have thought would be an intimate dinner.

Instead, after clips of the two and their loved ones before the event itself, the video captures the exact moment when Ashanti — who turned 44 on October 13 — realizes that her husband had planned something much more elaborate: an island themed birthday party, complete with tropical decorations.

Nelly accompanied the video with a sweet caption dedicated to the mother of his youngest son that reads: “Happy Bday To the most beautiful woman in the world.. Putting Smiles on your face is something i wake up thinking about and the thing I love doing the most… grateful to have someone who loves and appreciate me as much as I do them … love you mama.”

You always go out of ur way to make me smile…I love & appreciate u sooooo much!!! I’m so grateful to have the most thoughtful, kindest, loving man in the world!

Ashanti and Nelly welcomed son Kareem Kenkaide Hayes on July 18, but kept his name and birthdate quiet until late August.
