<div>Dear friends, family, and the extended music community,
</div>

</div>
<div>I hope this message finds you well. I am contacting you today to request support for a remarkable individual, Nasty "Nes" Rodriguez.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is really my first time on social media &amp; reaching out directly to you. Approximately three months ago as of early October I came close to dying due to sepsis, almost losing both kidneys &amp; and having a mild heart attack. I'm in my early 60's. My recovery hospitalization ended late novembver, but I had more medical complications after being released on November 26th that caused me to be readmitted to the ER. Your help has helped me and my family tremendously as I get better. I had planned to begin recovery therapy at home and end this GO FUND ME, but I humbally ask for your help to keep this going for a bit longer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you to everyone who has helped and contributed. From the guy who put the name PINOY on the Hip Hop map, "Maraming salamat sa into lahat!"

<div><strong>More Info:</strong>
</div>
<div>Regrettably, Nes is currently battling a series of severe health issues and was hospitalized. He has recently suffered from pneumonia, a heart attack, kidney failure, sepsis, and UTI and is in the process of relearning how to walk. His recovery will necessitate extensive physical therapy, as well as a wheelchair or scooter for mobility, specialized rehabilitation, rest, financial strain of his medical care, combined with high living costs and inadequate health insurance, has placed him in a precarious position.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Your support can help us ensure that his legacy inspires future generations.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As many of you may know, Nes is a legendary Filipino DJ, actor, and promoter from Seattle who has significantly impacted the music industry since the 1980s. His work with prestigious labels like Loud Records and Death Row Records has helped countless artists find their voices and shaped the industry's very fabric. Nes is credited with putting the name "Pinoy" on the Hip Hop map through Crazy Pinoy Promotions, which he established in 1992 after Nasty Mix Records closed, a record label he co-founded. He has worked with notable labels such as Death Row, Ruff House, Ruff Nation, Relativity, Priority Records, Bad Boy Records, and many more. Additionally, he was the first and only Filipino to debut hip hop on the radio, and he discovered Sir Mix-A-Lot in 1980.
