last month, Nasty C teamed up with DJ Whoo Kid to put together a mixtape for fans around the world. The musical masterpiece titled, ZULU features the hit track, They Don’t – his first-ever collaboration with Tip ‘T.I.’ Harris. They Don’t is a powerful track created by the rappers in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement.

The first three singles of the upcoming project were released in the past few months. These include There They Go, his collaboration with American rapper, T.I, They Don’t, and his most recent release, Eazy.
