Last week it was revealed that rapper Nas had fallen behind $11k in child support, had stopped paying his 19-year-old daughter Destiny’s college tuition and that Carmen Bryan wanted him held in contempt of court.
She told The Scoop with the Hip-hop Socialite that the drastic measure is not to get him locked up, but to get some treatment for what she claims are serious mental illnesses suffered by the legendary MC.
“I do not want to see my child’s father go to jail. However, I do want to see him get the mental help that I believe he desperately needs,” Bryan said. “So this situation is a curse and a blessing.”
She highlighted a particular incident early in their relationship to support her claims that he is bipolar and a paranoid schizophrenic.
“I came in the house, Destiny and I, and he was on the couch wrapped up in a blanket; his mom was on one side of him, his brother on the other side, there were a few more people in the house,” Bryan said. “My first reaction was, ‘Is everything okay? What happened?’ And that’s when Nas told me ghosts were haunting him again, and entities were whispering to him and touching him and bothering him. So, I’ve witnessed this long battle with insanity.”
