With such a distinctive voice and sound, it comes as no surprise that NICCO, a vocalist, songwriter, producer, engineer and electrifying performer, is making major strides forward in the music scene. NICCO was influenced by reggae music at the age of 10 when he was forced to live with extended family in St. John US Virgin Islands. He stayed in the Caribbean for a while and then went back and fourth for many years to work during the summers. It was there where he became deeply influenced by Reggae. By age 12 he was experimenting with the reggae vocals and received an overwhelming response from his older peers who would sneak him into Caribbean parties and force him to rock the microphone over instrumentals. Later he moved to Queens and Brooklyn where his Jamaican and Trinidadian friends promoted him as he blazed up the dancehall scene with his stylistic blend of sweet vocals with fast rough chanting that encompasses a range from straight dancehall to the smooth roots reggae and soca music. Embracing not only Caribbean crowds, but appealing to the masses, NICCO was bringing his energetic performance to the hottest Caribbean spots in Brooklyn's Flatbush area and other top venues in Manhattan where he opened up for some of the biggest names in Reggae including, Buju Banton, Kevin Lyttle, Red Fox, and Screechie Don.
Now based out of Los Angeles, NICCO has been recently focusing on the Europe scene by dropping his vocal flows over dance tracks. The response has been tremendous and he has had hits in many countries in Europe and has a NUMBER 1 HIT in Poland and now Russia, “DO IT ALL NIGHT” and "DESTINATION", NUMBER 1 HIT in Austria. Both are rapidly spreading across all of Europe right now. With many more singles about to release and beyond Europe NICCO is working on his own album and also writing and producing for other artists.
