Multi-platinum rapper Nelly has announced plans to expand his fashion portfolio by re-launching Troop Clothing.

The late 80's fashion line popularized by such rap veterans as, LL Cool J, will be introduced to a new generation, Nelly told Dr.Jays.com.

Comprised of both apparel and footwear, Troop Clothing was created in 1986 in the Bronx, New York. Troop is credited as being one of hip-hop's first clothing brands.

Nelly first re-introduced Troop Clothing to fans during a performance at last year's BET Hip-Hop Awards.

This will mark the second brand for Nelly, following his already successful ladies clothing line, Apple Bottoms.
