In a statement, Nas (who dropped out of school in the 8th grade) expressed how anxious he is to work with students saying,
“I’m inspired to support Koru participants because I know how hard it can be to carve out your path and purpose in life. It takes conviction, hard work and the right network. The young people going through Koru are gritty, book smart and street smart. The Koru program gives them an opportunity to put those smarts to work. I can’t wait to work directly with them and share what I’ve learned through my own life experiences.
More deets are on Koru’s official website.
And in other Nas news…his music documentary “Time Is Illmatic” will premier globally soon. In the meantime, U.S. viewers can expect to see the film in theaters in October. Nice.
