Nas Asks the Judge to Lower His Child Support Payments To Kelis

Just last month, rapper Nas was ordered to pay more than $87,000 up front in back spousal and child support. In addition to that, the judge ordered the New York rapper to pay his soon-to-be ex wife Kelis $10,000 a month in child support and an undisclosed amount for monthly child support until he makes up the nearly $300,000 that he owes.

But Nas (real name: Nasir Jones) says there’s no way he can afford to pay all of that right now!

Originally, the judge presiding over Nas and Kelis’ divorce case based the amount Nas was to pay off of an estimated $152,031 per month income, but in new legal documents obtained by TMZ, Nas says he makes “substanstially less than that amount.” So now his lawyer Marc Vincent Kaplan wants the judge to take another look at his finances to adjust the payments accordingly.

Hopefully his new project with Damien Marley will pay off so that he can finally finish making payments on that expensive azz milkshake.
