[edit] Music video
The music video for "Nann Nigga" features then Indianapolis Colts running back Edgerrin James, who, like Trick Daddy, resides in Miami, Florida.
[edit] Song theme
The song is about Trick Daddy boasting that no one can do anything like him, especially when it comes to loving (or making love to) Trina. In fact, to understand the song, the word "Nann" could be said to mean "no", "none" or "not one"; the resultant statement a double negative typical of southern vernacular: "You don't know "no" nigga like me..." Other possible interpretations could be that "nann" is a disambiguation of the colloquial "nary", meaning "not a" or "not one" or "never a". "You don't know any other ho..." Trick Daddy's boasting is reciprocated by Trina, with her singing "You don't know nann ho..." towards the middle of the song.
[edit] Chart performance
"Nann" didn't perform as well as expected on the Billboard Hot 100 peaking at only #62. Despite this, the single was much more successful on Hot Rap Tracks(peaking at #3) and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks(peaking at #20). It was Trick Daddy's first and only single to hit the Top 10 or Top 20 on the Hot Rap Tracks, until "Let's Go".
