About DJDJ Nickiee ("Nickiee") was raised in South Central, Los Angeles. As an exceptional student, she received scholarships to attend a historic all-girls, college preparatory school in Los Angeles, CA. In her youth, she was a student at Marla Gibb's Crossroads Academy for acting and was represented by Tony Kellman & Arletta. Nickiee was also a stellar athlete in track and soccer, qualifying for State Championships in the 400m dash and setting school records in the 200m dash. After graduating from college with a B.A. in Economics, she later received her Juris Doctorate. Music has always molded Nickiee's life. As an avid "hip-hop head," she has collected music since New York hip-hop was played on Los Angeles' KDAY AM radio station during a time where the New York sound had not penetrated the West Coast market. Her music knowledge base extends beyond her years, attending Michael Jackson, Rick James, and George Benson concerts since the age of 3 with her youthful mother whose vinyl and eight tracks heavily influenced Nickiee's love for music, especially the love of R&B classics. In her college years, Nickiee was a frequent visitor at 89.1 FM show, "New York Live," which broke such artists as Jay-Z, the Fugees, Capone n Norega, and the Wutang Clan to name a few. She constantly watched 89.1 deejays, but female deejays were not taken seriously at that time. Over the past decade, Nickie has focused on her legal studies but continued to develop her musical ear and is frequently asked by reowned producers and rappers about her thoughts regarding their music because her appreciation, love, and knowledge of hip-hop is so profound. She decided to transition an age old hobby into a career. Nickiee is destined to be one of the most recognized and technically skilled female DJs in the world and more. Currently, Nickiee is represented by Global Artists Agency. In addition, she has mixtapes in production. Furthermore, she started a new production company called Ear Play Music and plans to make hit records. Nickiee continues to add accolades; therefore this biography is to be continued...
