“My inspiration comes mainly from experiences and emotions,” explains Nickel-Us F. “I’m not a super thug, I’m just a regular dude, but I’ve done some grimy sh*** in my life.”

Nickel-Us F resides in Richmond, VA and has fined tuned his talent there for the last seven years. He got his first big break in 2000 when he was 17 and got chance to spit against 300 contenders in the regional Source Unsigned Hype Emcee Battle. He placed second in that competition with no formal recordings under his belt.

From that experience Nickel-Us F took his skills to another level and started to look at being a Hip Hop artist more seriously. “I just hope to make a steady living… I just wanna make it happen and be able to support a family,” says Nick.

Since 2000 Nickel-Us F has recorded an overwhelming amount of material that is waiting to be heard. Right now he has two mix tapes under his belt and a single on the streets called “Nurp” getting ready to blaze radio in VA and around the East coast, Midwest and South.

In Richmond Nickel-Us F has a following like no other artist. His crew, The Burglars, and a team of producers that is ready to take over the industry with their vicious lyrics and slick production styles.

Nickel-Us F is a blessed artist that understands both the emceeing and production parts of making music. He shows intensity in his delivery and his word play is comparable to the greats.

Nickel-Us F has lived through it all and is brutally honest in his music. Music to him is not a 9 to 5; it is a beast spirit that possesses him. The fruit of his labor with that beast is what he offers. He brings the stance and attitude of a warrior with him into the studio and the stage.

Nick says, “The biggest source of my inspiration and hard work comes from jealousy and pure competition...I am unbelievably jealous of Cassidy, Lloyd Banks, J Kwon, Murphy Lee & Chingy... Really any rapper in my age group that is doin’ it... Especially if I feel I'm better or on the same level...it iggs me like nothing else... I want their spot!!!”
