A judge has ordered Nas to pay his estranged wife nearly $44,000 in monthly support for the near future, The Associated Press reported on Thursday. The move comes one day after R&B singer Kelis gave birth to the divorcing couple’s baby boy, Knight Jones.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Louis Meisinger issued the order during a Thursday afternoon hearing.

In April, Kelis, whose full name is Kelis Rogers, filed for divorce from the rapper after four years of marriage. The two have spent the past several months arguing over support payments.
