More music coming from Nasty C

Nasty C has gained more freedom now as an independent artist and does not have to go through the admin when wanting to create music. He mentioned the few setbacks some creatives face, as some announce upcoming music but they never get to drop it.

He noted how his fans would pester him for new music but he failed to deliver because of the higher-ups delaying his release.

“I know for a very long time I have not been releasing for my fans. Like when they say, ‘Yo, that is music from seven years ago, where is it?’ Now I can actually drop those songs. I do not have to go through a long chain of command and stuff like that.
