Nico Cafe'
Lyricist, poet, and singer Nic Brown also known as N.i.C/ Nico Cafe' fell in love with music at a young age. A product of Atlanta, Georgia's Zone 4 area he placed the realities of the drug life in perspective at an early age. Always reminded of his multiple talents his family and other loved ones refused to allow him to walk the road which they have traveled. Often finding it difficult to stay away from trouble and issues dealing with anger, a pen and paper were placed before him and would eventually prove to be the route through which he rediscoved his aspirations.
Later, he, along with several childhood friends, formed a group formally known as the Konfusion Klique whose group members all shared a common love for music. In high school they performed at several events gaining experience and connections.
As he began to grow lyrically, he teamed up with an entertainment group by the name of HNE (Hell Naw Ent.) and helped organize several parties, produce several songs, and create several mix-tapes. Working with the likes of Boy Boy Ent., T.N.T., the East-side's K.T.A., Co-founded the upcoming Trill 7 Ent. and collaborating with a number of others, he began to acquire greater acclaim and exposure. After his high school life was over he was forced to choose between college and hip-hop, he chose college. This decision initially caused him to loose his ambition and love for music. While attending Georgia Southern University he met many entrepreneurs, rappers, engineers, and producers, which in turn incited his unfathomable hunger to return in an enormous manner. Willing to work with anyone who is willing to work, he is back on the grind planning to put all sucker Mc's to sleep...eternally!
