Since hitting the hip-hop scene, Nef The Pharaoh has cemented his place as the Bay Area’s new golden child. Nef (short for nephew) began rapping when he was 4-years-old.

In this episode of Deflowered, a MERRY JANE original series, Nef takes us back to his childhood days in Vallejo, California recounting his first time writing rhymes, and his first performance in front of a crowd.

A true cannabis connoisseur, Nef has also launched his own line of Egyptian-themed pre-rolled joints for sale in Bay Area collectives.

Each episode of Deflowered poses a unique look into a monumental "first time" for our guests — a vital moment in their careers, inspirations, and outlook on life.
