Nas was born and raised in Queens’ bridge housing projects in New York City. When Nas was nine, he started writing rhymes and playing the trumpet. After his neighbor Willy “Ill Will” Graham introduced him to this genre, he slowly switched from jazz to hip-hop. When he was 12 years old, his parents divorced, and he got kicked out of school. A lot of things he learned on the streets of Queens Bridge instead of in a classroom. And he knew about other cultures by reading books.
In his rhymes, he uses his experience of danger on the streets along with his commitment never to stop learning. He was a relationship between him and different co-workers. In 1994, he and Carmen Bryan welcomed their daughter Destiny. Then he ended his relationship with Carmen and proposed to Mary J. for a short-dated. He married Kelis in 2005, and they have a kid together. They didn’t last long with their relationship, and in 2010 they split up.
