He started his musical career in 2010 but faced some challenges as an upcoming artist. He was once told to quit rapping/singing until he moved to Europe in 2014. Back home, he featured in some projects but they weren’t released because the producers had mixed feelings about his talent.

Nassi B has something that drives him which is;
“As dreamers, we only wake-up, though not from bed but from every dream killer. If no one believes in you, then you owe yourself to be your own believer. As a hustler we don’t stop when we are tired, we rest and continue till we reach the finishing line.”
