Rolling Loud Roll Call: J NICS

by .

When it comes to Miami talent, as far as Hip Hop is concerned, J NICS is one of the ruling elite. This is a man who sports the “305” area code with pride on all accounts. He’s not Uncle Luke, Trick Daddy, or even Rick Ross status, but he is certainly Miami OG status. NICS has been releasing music since the early mixtape era, collaborating with notable national acts like Freeway, Freddie Gibbs (as seen in the video above), REKS and pretty much every talented Hip Hop act from Florida including JT Money, Denzel Curry, ¡Mayday!, QuESt, and plenty more to find with a quick google search. His status as a representative of the city remains relevant, as in recent times he was a featured artist at last year’s A3C “305 LIVE” showcase in Atlanta. He continues to make music, perform, host, and make appearances at popular nightlife events in the area, especially during Art Basel (the photo below was taken from Basel Castle). Let’s put it this way, he’s so Miami, that he went to the same high school as Randy Shannon. He’s also so Miami, that he will be performing at Miami’s own Rolling Loud Festival on February 28th. It truly wouldn’t be a Miami Hip Hop festival without him.
