Nasty C has been in the rap game since the age of nine.
While most children his age were riding their bikes outside, the rapper was making music with his older brother and his friends.
Nasty C released his first mixtape, One Kid, a Thousand Coffins, and debut EP, L.A.M.E (Levitating Above My Enemies), before graduating from high school. His second mixtape, Price City, produced his hit song, Juice Back. The trackhelped put him on the map.
Cassper Nyovest and Nigerian superstar Davido featured on the Juice Back remix, exposing Nasty C to a bigger audience.
Hell Naw, the lead single off his first studio album, Bad hair, earned him a string of awards, including "Song of the Year" at the 2016 Metro FM Awards. He also won “Best Hip Hop Album” and “Best Male Album”.
Nasty C's follow-up album, Strings and Bling, was equally successful. It was named one of the best hip-hop offerings of 2018.
It seems Nasty C is not going to be stopping anytime soon on becoming one of the youngest great rappers in the game. His talent has got him to sign so many deals and at such a young age, he's already surpassed many that joined the industry before him.
Nasty C's biography is a story of how a kid with a big dream proved everyone wrong.
Nasty C New Album
We always love it when our faves give fans their new body of work and Nasty C never disappoints.
His hard work definitely paid off and in an exclusive interview with ZAlebs the rapper says fans can expect great music from this masterpiece. The album features some dope collabos with T.I., Ari Lennox, Rowlene, Tellaman and a few others. Speaking on choosing his collaborations he says.
"It just happened naturally I guess because with regards to me and Tellaman whenever I feel like I have a song I call him and we get to the studio and make it. With the international guys it was a matter of them hearing about me, or the people that know me that side when they are in the studios they make the connections and all I do is just to find a song that is perfect send it and make it out."
However, before the release of the great album there were some mishaps and the fans were not impressed at all. Not only waiting to listen to the album, fans wanted to support Nasty C by consuming his album using the correct and legal channels. Their excitement got cut short after his album was leaked online by various websites.

Def Jam Recordings is an American record label focused predominantly on hip hop, pop, and urban music, owned by Universal Music Group. With such a great success record, it is befitting that Nasty C joins the label.
