Nasro was born Nasereddine Souidi in Aïn Témouchent and then grew up in the western Algerian city of Oran.[4] His first foray into music came at the age of two. Despite competition Nasro and Cheb Hasni became close friends. Hope of Nasro early career began to fade after the tragic murder of Cheb Hasni September 29, 1994. While Raï many artists emigrated to Europe or North America, he was one of the few to continue singing in his homeland.[citation needed]
