So much for a reconciliation: Nas has filed a legal bid to prevent his estranged wife Kelis from receiving spousal support payments, TMZ.com reported Monday.

The former hip-hop supercouple has been embroiled in a bitter divorce since April. In July, Nas was ordered to pay the “Milkshake” hitmaker $55,000-a-week in spousal and child support by a New York judge, but now the star is trying to knock down those payments.

Nas is also seeking joint custody of his baby son.

Grammy-nominated rapper Nas has penned an open letter to America’s youth in light of the brutal beating death of a 16 year-old high school student in Illinois last Thursday. Chicago Police say Derrion Albert, an innocent bystander, was savagely slain as he tried to help a fellow student trapped in the middle of a fight between two gangs.

A heartbreaking three minute video shot by a fellow student on her cell phone was released to police and ultimately provided the evidence which led to the arrests and charges of four teenagers — Silvonus Shannon, 19, Eric Carson, 16, Eugene Bailey, 18, and Eugene Riley, 18.

Nas: “I Was A Hell Of A Husband”

Nas wants a medal.

In an interview with the Straight Magazine to promote his show in Canada last weekend, Nas briefly addressed the rumors flooding the interwebs about his relationship with soon-to-be-ex-wife Kelis. Despite reports that he was unfaithful, and is even expecting a child outside of his marriage, Nas believes he was a “hell of a husband.”

“It’s funny that someone would even care about some Nasir Jones shit,” he told the magazine. “I’m still that kid from the block at the end of the day.… So when I watch this shit, it’s surreal. We get a good laugh off it and say, ‘Hey, they’re talking about me again and it’s some funny shit.’…I heard that I was a cheater….It almost sounds like I was a bad husband. Not to say I was the greatest — I’m not perfect in anything I do — but I think I deserve a fucking trophy. If I do say so myself, without sounding too cocky, I gotta say I was a hell of a husband and a hell of a dad…..It’s unfortunate when business is out there about your personal shit, especially when you’re really not the guy to be having his shit out there. The sad thing is, you’ve got to get used to it. My skin is so thick that I probably need to write a book for people who are not ready for anything crazy.”
