Although he requested for his child support payment to be decreased, Nas will be paying quite the hefty sum to his ex, Kelis, and their baby boy, Knight.

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge ordered the rapper to increase his monthly child and spousal payments from $40,000 to $52,101, which totals to more than $600,000 a year!!

Wowsa!

Nas' lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, claims that his client came out ahead because although he will have to front the extra $10,000 per month, he no longer has to pay expenses on the couple's former El Lay home.

Riiight.

Yet, Kelis may also have some money of her own! She signed a new record deal with Interscope and is working a new album with a "futuristic disco" sound, which was inspired by her pregnancy and birth of her baby.

Hold on to that money, honey!

You're gonna need it!

      wow.
      "i don't want to pay that much to support my child."
      that's going to be nice when the kid grows up, isn't it?
      "gee dad, i guess i wasn't worth it to you."
      how's he gonna explain that to the poor kid? what a dickhead.

      I just don't understand how a MAN (supposedly) can get up in court and ask to pay less money for his child, without there being a drastic downturn in his economic prospects.

      Nas needs to pay me some more money too



    10. 10

      there's an old song about this…it's called 'IT'S CHEAPER TO KEEP HER'!!!!
      -
      damn, nas, that kid is only a couple of months old, right?



    11. 11

      thats some bullshit. i feel bad for Nas.



    12. 12

      I think he asked to reduce the child support because he wants joint custody…which is a good thing.



    13. 13

      Damn, sick of this sh!t.
      These f*cking women need to get a job.
      How the f*ck does she need that much to raise one child?



    14. 14

      that's crazy. i'm a fan of both, but that's too much money.



    15. 15

      She does NOT need spousal support! Work for your OWN money!



    16. 16

      Re: Angus8 – She has a job. LOL. And it doesn't matter how much she makes, if he makes a lot too and she has the kid then he has to pay.

      But $50,000/month! Dammit!!!



    17. 17

      Perez, are you running out of stories?
      You printed this story a few months ago!

      It is so funny how they say he has to pay this and that. Basically that is just a money breakdown of a total amount. No biggie. Sounds like she is getting over good but after 5 years she better have save that money.
