Nasty C Shares Secrets to American Success After Chris Brown Recognition: “Patience Served to My Advantage”

• Nasty C is reaping the benefits of staying true to his artistry and putting in the work necessary to reach international stardom
• The rapper has solid relationships with US rappers such as TI and has stated that he wants song features to come naturally rather than being paid for
• Recently, the SMA rapper's flow and bars earned recognition from American superstar Chris Brown

Nasty C's tireless efforts to promote himself, not only in Africa but around the world, are finally bearing fruit.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the world seemed to come to a halt for many Mzansi musicians, but the rapper was on the move, making his name known in Hollywood and other major international stages.

Opening up to TshisaLIVE, the 25-year-old said he has always wished to be a global public figure and was not ashamed to start from the bottom in the United States.

Instead of going by the book and paying for song features, Nasty C said he focused on building solid relationships with the likes of legendary US rappers like TI.

"But because I waited, he found out who I was and he already knew my story and what kind of person I was. And he was already a fan of mine. There was already mutual respect before we even started making music. I think this relationship is bigger than 'Oh, that's just an African rapper I made a song with' type of vibe," said Nasty about TI.

Aside from making useful contacts, Nasty said that waiting for your time to come is critical when entering a foreign industry. 

"Patience really servd to my advantage."
