The make-a-wish foundation has tapped Nas to help with a special request froma 13-year-old boy, Darnell Hicks, who wants to meet his favorite emcee. Hicks was diagnosed at the age of 2 with Duchenne, a form of muscular dystrophy that normally kills the host by the time they are in their 20's.
Confined to a wheelchair since the age of 10, Darnell will be flown out today (3/5) to Los Angeles where he will attend Nas concert and then get to meet the Queens rapper afterward. Hicks will not only have his dream fulfilled, he will also get to check out Universal Studios and Disneyland on his trip.
