A unique perspective always prompts deeper reflection. Nasty C has described Teddy as his realest friend. The two have been as thick as thieves since before all the fame and glory. Nasty shares, “We went through the same struggles together and we’re both so passionate about music and art. We relate to one another on another level. I think of him as my brother.”
Teddy was one of the first people to believe in Nasty C and take him seriously. It started with Nasty C’s breakout single mixtape becoming a continent-wide hit, following a remix by Nigeria’s Davido and Casspar Nyovest. Now Nasty C is a global name, touring in Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia, and North America. Teddy shares, “I’ve been travelling with Junior (Nasty C) since 2019. In the past two years, we’ve done about 43 countries.”
His latest album Zulu Man with Some Power is about embracing who he is and selling it to the world. “It’s a very important album for me,” Nasty C shares, “It symbolises the beginning of a transformation and a transition from being a local artist to being a global artist. I decided to title it and theme it around my culture and my roots.” Nasty C’s latest offering sees him collaborating with industry heavyweights like ATL Jacobs, Ari Lennox and T.I.
