专辑简介

Nikki P was born in Atlanta, GA, growing up in the Kirkwood neighborhood of East Atlanta. Nikki P heard the call deep inside to pursue her music. She began her dream to become a musician at the age of 10. Nikki P began playing the piano at 12 and studied briefly with renowned singer, director, musician, Diva Robin Brown, and then self-taught herself on the style she now plays. She later joined several church choirs and sang solo at church concerts, weddings and private functions. Nikki P performed for The Women's Missionary Association, and sang with Robin Brown's Interdenomination Choir for Martin Luther King's Celebration, and The Celestial Choir, The Youth for Christ Choir, and Celestial Voices of Praise. She was the pianist and choir director for the Piney Grove Baptist Church's Male Chorus in Lithonia, Georgia and assisted briefly The Greater Traveler's Rest Baptist Church's Youth for Christ Choir of Decatur, Georgia. Nikki P's musical style has been compared to Lala Hathaway, Maxwell, Anita Baker, Prince, Sade and Meshell Ndegeocello-- all wrapped into one! Her style is uniquely passionate, erotic, inspirational and bluesy, with a splash of jazz. She once stated that "music was a way for her express herself where words could not." However, she played for a few friends and they inspired her to take it to another level--let the public and music world hear something new, exciting and refreshing! Nikki P started her own recording label, Phillips Recording, Inc., and is looking for new talents to add to her label. Nikki P produces, publishes, books her own gigs, markets, etc. She plays all the instruments herself and performs all of the vocals. Nikki P has collaborated with many talents in the Atlanta area, such as Ayish (an up and coming rapper) and Philip Meadows (a grooving sax player) who is only 19 years old! You can hear the fun Nikki P and her collaboraters had live at Showtime on the new Chillin' CD! Enjoy!
