Earlier this year the “Black and White” hitmaker revealed that he plans to retire when he turns 35, but only if he has made $1 billion (R14.5 billion).
The award-winning rapper sat down with Sizwe Dhlomo in an episode of his podcast series and got real about how his approach to music has changed and how he thinks he could have done better in his rap career.
The pair also spoke about Nasty C’s plans for the future.
When asked by Sizwe what life looked like for him after 35, Nasty C, who is 24 years old, said he had it all figured out already.
“I can’t tell you but I have it all figured out. I am going to go to this place that I love, it’s so left, nobody would actually just move there or even retire there, but I am going to retire there,” he said.
