Jimmy Cunnings, better known as Cloud 9, Nina, or simply Cloud, was born on the south side of Chicago. Growing up in the inner city inspired him to do something to keep him off of the mean South-side streets. Tho his mind wandered off into the gang lifestyle Cloud began to write down things that he saw going in around him. What started off as some would call poetry, Cloud started reading these writings over music. Cloud then developed a rap like delivery and the rest is history. Cloud then wanted to create his own music to write to. Tho these "beats" wasn't the greatest they were his own. By the time his delivery was perfected he then began recruiting. Henceforth..... The birth of Diamond District Entertainment. If u are looking for a producer who can rap and deliver bars fluently and offer a gritty in your face performance then look no further. If he is not the next generation of entertainers then he is definitely the prototype.
