Nasty C Shares A Hilarious “How-To” Guide On Becoming A Rapper

Nasty C Shares A Hilarious “How-To” Guide On Becoming A Rapper. South African rap superstar Nasty C has traded in his poetic bars for comedic genius, delivering a side-splitting masterclass on what it really takes to become a rapper. In a video that had fans laughing until their abs hurt, Nasty shared five “tips” so outrageous they might just work—if you’re daring enough to try them.

1. Tattoos, Tattoos, Tattoos

“You need tattoos; you need to ruin every chance of getting a good job. Just get meaningless tattoos all over your body.”
Nasty C might be onto something here. After all, nothing screams “dedicated to the game” like a neck tattoo of a dollar sign or a cryptic phrase that even Google Translate can’t decipher.

2. Fake Friends: Essential for a Backstory

“Get a bunch of fake friends that will betray you so you can have a story to tell.”
The rapper suggested turning life’s lemons into lyrical lemonade. After all, what’s a rap album without at least one “betrayal anthem”? Trust issues, meet Billboard charts.

3. Embrace Poverty Like a Badge of Honor

“Be poor for at least 3 years. No one likes a rapper that comes from wealth. I don’t know how Drake did it, but he did it. You can’t do it.”
In what felt like a playful jab at the industry’s obsession with struggle stories, Nasty C emphasized that a rags-to-riches journey is non-negotiable—unless, of course, you’re Drake. Then you’re just built different.

4. Tone-Deaf? Perfect!

“You have to be tone-deaf so that when they put autotune on, your voice sounds like what we’re used to—trap music.”
Who needs perfect pitch when you’ve got autotune? According to Nasty, being tone-deaf isn’t a handicap; it’s a prerequisite. Move over, vocal coaches—this is the era of robotic melodies.

5. Proximity to a Pharmacy is Key

“Have a pharmacy somewhere close so you can get yourself some *** (censored) and stuff and just be nonchalant.”
While the specifics of this advice were censored, the message was clear: be cool, calm, and collected—pharmacy visit optional.

While it’s clear Nasty C’s tips were meant to tickle funny bones rather than serve as actionable advice, one can’t help but feel there’s a nugget of truth buried in the satire. Whether you’re inked, broke, betrayed, or tone-deaf, perhaps the ultimate takeaway is this: Becoming a rapper isn’t about following a formula—it’s about embracing the chaos.

And if all else fails, there’s always autotune.
