Peter J. Nash (born February 5, 1967), known by his stage name Prime Minister Pete Nice or simply Pete Nice, is an American baseball historian and author, member of the Society for American Baseball Research, Hip Hop historian, and former rapper and record producer.

Following the split Nash continued to be managed by Carson as a solo act alongside other artists such as Positive K, Just-Ice, King Sun, Audio Two, and Stetsasonic.

Nash was introduced to popular Brooklyn graffitist and rapper Blake Letham (known as Lord Scotch, Scotch 79th, or KEO) and future renowned A&R Dante Ross by roommate, Mark Pearson (known as SAKE), who later became the road manager for 3rd Bass (Pearson currently serves as the Chief Strategy Officer at AMC Theatres).

Around this time Nash formed the rap group Servin' Generalz with Lord Scotch and Cool Papa Sha (or Shameek The Beat Mizer).

In 1987 Nash created and hosted the "We Could Do This" radio show with DJ Clark Kent on Columbia's WKCR 89.9 FM on Mondays from 12:30 AM – 1:30 AM.

Throughout the mid to late 1980s, Nash was a frequent visitor at multiple popular New York City Hip Hop clubs, including the Latin Quarter.

In October 1998, Nash reunited with MC Serch to perform at a birthday party for fashion designer Andy Hilfiger.

When deposed under oath, Nash invoked the Fifth Amendment dozens of times in response to questions about the origins of specific pieces of memorabilia.
