Goobye/Hello

Six years ago I introduced the world to Nick Nice with my indepenent, debut album, Sunday Afternoons. Since then I have provided the world with quality Hip-Hop music in the form of three more full length solo albums, a group/compilation album, four mixtapes, and a slew of featured guest spots on an array of other artists' projects. I am nothing less than proud of my catalogue, and am truly appreciative of every single one of you who have shown support through downloads, plays, coming out to live shows, and simply just spreading the word. I can honestly say that the majority of the time invested in creating and performing my music was beyond enjoyable, and truly a dream come true.

With that said, I feel it is time for me to step away from the microphone, at least for the time being. I got into the "game" for the love of the music...the fun, the excitment, and the passion. It was a way to release my feelings, express my creativity, and mostly, contribute to a culture and genre of music that I have the utmost respect for. And I could not be more honored to have done so. Unfortunately, I have reached a place that I had been warned about by numerous veteran artists...the place where making music has turned into more work than fun. Now, that's not to say I don't accept that this game demands hard work, a constant grind, and continuous struggle. Afterall, struggle is one of the biggest influences. But when the pen hits that pad, or when you step behind that microphone with the beat bumping through your headphones, you should feel completely free and own that moment...and those feelings no longer hit me in either of those scenarios. I can contribute that to a lot of different things, but there's no need to get into all that. But forcing music is the last thing I plan to do, so unless that drive coarses through my veins again, I will remain a fan and leave the creating to those who still have that same love for it that I always did.

Now, the last thing I plan to do is leave the Hip-Hop community without that quality music that you have come to expect from Try-City Entertainment. One of the main things that has remained a constant in Nick Nice music from the beginning is my right hand man, the Try-City Capo, JK Tha Cap'n. Whether lending his vocals to a hit track, sharing his hook expertise when a track needs that one little thing to grab the listeners by the throat so they scream along during at least those eight bars, or just simply being there to critique the finished product, JK has been instrumental (no pun) in Nick Nice and all of Try-City Entertainment's success. So, as I step from the healm, tha Cap'n is sure to seemlessly fill the void with no time to waste.

Currently, JK is hard at work on his debut solo album, Longshot, which is sure to solidify his spot in the local scene, as well as take the world wide web by storm. In preparation for his album's release, there is also plans for an EP containing a mixture of old and new joints that will familiarize the world with his abilities, and showcase his growth from a prison yard, chest-pounding bar spitter, to the polished, well rounded songwriter he has become. Whether it's streetwise lyrics over a gritty backdrop, or that club bounce and hook that sticks in your head for days, JK will deliver.

So, as much as I hate to step away from the game that I love so much, I know that the Try-City label and family that I worked so hard to build will be in more than capable hands. So again, I thank all who have shown me support over the past six years. All I ask is that you continue to represent Try-City Entertainment, and at least give all future music from the team a chance. I would never leave y'all hanging with anything less than true quality. God bless y'all, and holla at cha BOY!

"Tryfecta : Behind The Music" !!!

So, as y'all know, and as I've said a million times now, myself, my Try-City Capo, Jk Tha Cap'n, and our "song bird" Alexandrea Scarchilli, have been hard at work over the past few months creating what we're sure will be a hit album...Tryfecta. Well, as much as I could remember, I tried to keep a camera rolling while we were in the studio creating, recording, and complaining. I've taken some of that footage (some), along with interviews from each of us, and created a little "Behind The Music" for ya'll to check out. I know I'm no VH1, but if you're at all interested in us as artists or as people, it'll be dope to watch and a good little preview of what's comin' atcha this Friday, 3/23/12. when we hit you with the Tryfecta album in it's entirety!! Hope y'all enjoy!!!!

New Single!! "Time Flies"!!!

We're in the home stretch! The long awaited Try-City Entertainment compilation album, Tryfecta, is almost here!! So far we've heard the first single, "Look At Me" (which is available for free download HERE), and now it's time to roll out single number duece..."Time Flies" . Like the previous track, this features Nick Nice on the hook and verses from each Try-City artist including Nick, along with JK Tha Cap'n, and Alexandrea Scharchilli. "Time Flies" is a little less "dancy", but still upbeat and positive. One Love Beats, a production team from Germany, handles the production on this as well, and delivers another feel good backdrop to a track that will have your head bobbin' and noddin' in agreement. So enjoy these two releases for the next seven days, and then let the Try-City trio show you all their cards when Tryfecta hits a timeline near you!

"COMBAT" - Nick Nice, GM, & Melvin Junko

This oldie but goodie finally got a breath of fresh air with a video release (and almost slipped through the cracks here at Try-City Headquarters)! The song was originally released back in 2011 on Melvin Junko's compilation album, "Junk Mail". Over the summer, before Junko's departure back to his hometown of Salt Lake City, we decided to get together for one last hoo-ra and shoot this grimey ass vid to mach the raw, hard hitting track. It was finally recently released to the world wide web. Hope y'all enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it. Track is available for free download HERE!
