“Hip-Hop don’t have social security.” 👀💰🙏 Nas helped give Grandmaster Caz something bigger than a shoutout. Through the Paid in Full Foundation, which Nas co-founded, the hip-hop pioneer received financial support that allowed him to buy a house and finally leave the projects. The Cold Crush Brothers legend explained the reality behind his decades of contributions: “You have to work. You got to stay out there. For me anyway, I got to keep working.” Caz kept doing radio, park jams and hip-hop sightseeing tours to support himself. His story shows why helping the pioneers means more than celebrating their influence. For him, that support meant a home. Interview clip.
