Determined
to
live
out
his
passion
for
music,
Nitty
began
honing
his
skills
as
a
member
of
a
crew
called
the
Du
Brothers
from
the
Lower
East
Side
of
Manhattan.
The
Du
Brothers
were
a
large
crew
of
aspiring
singers,
rappers,
break
dancers
and
DJs
that
made
a
name
for
themselves
by
performing
in
their
local
neighborhood.
Nitty
thrived
quickly
within
this
family
of
entertainers,
and
would
eventually
return
to
his
old
neighborhood,
where
many
began
to
see
him
as
a
“rose
that
would
grow
from
the
crack.”
Rather
than
coming
to
be
known
only
as
a
rapper,
Nitty's
desire
is
to
completely
entertain—reminiscent
of
showstoppers
Doug
E.
Fresh
and
Will
Smith.
While
he
definitely
“moves
the
crowd,”
his
upbringing
lets
him
see
the
importance
of
maintaining
a
sense
of
positivity,
too.
Bringing
back
the
excitement
of
the
classic
house
party
jams,
Nitty’s
sole
mission
is
to
make
hip-hop
fun
again.
Even
when
he
is
getting
grown
and
sexy
for
the
ladies,
he
manages
to
do
it
without
making
the
women
feel
like
he
is
degrading
them,
which
is
very
important
to
him.
Even
with
his
current
smash
single
titled
“Nasty
Girl,”
Nitty
explains,
“the
song
is
not
about
a
woman
being
disrespected,
but
enjoying
being
free
and
letting
loose.
I
want
women
to
know
that
expressing
their
sexuality
is
not
only
normal,
but
also
appealing.
Being
Nasty
in
essence
is
exploring
your
inner
most
private
desires
and
forgetting
what
the
other
person
on
the
dance
floor
thinks
of
you,”
he
shares.
With
a
sound
that
perfectly
fuses
an
old
school
essence
with
a
new
school
vibe,
Nitty
has
the
charisma
of
LL
Cool
J
and
the
versatility
of
Usher.
This
captivating
mix
makes
him
accessible
to
a
wide
variety
of
audiences
and
musical
tastes.
Following
his
own
path,
Nitty
aims
to
bring
back
music
with
a
good
feel,
and
strays
from
the
mold
of
‘the
rapper
from
the
“hood”
with
a
chip
on
his
shoulder.’
He
asserts,
“making
universally
acceptable
music
is
not
a
hindrance.
I
want
everyone
to
enjoy
my
music
and
I’m
not
afraid
of
making
the
kids
from
the
suburbs,
as
well
as
the
kids
from
my
old
block,
vibe
to
my
music.”
As
a
writer
and
producer
of
all
of
his
own
music,
Nitty
can
make
songs
the
way
he
likes—feel-good
music
that
spans
the
generational
gaps
comfortably.
In
keeping
with
his
clean
image,
Nitty
makes
the
type
of
music
kids
can
play
without
their
parents
having
to
cover
their
ears,
especially
since
its
curse
free!
Bringing
back
the
good
vibes
and
a
time
when
you
went
to
a
show
to
be
entertained,
not
just
rapped
at,
is
what
Nitty
specializes
in.
With
his
explosive
rapping
skills,
positive
energy
and
million
dollar
smile,
there
is
no
doubt
that
Nitty
is
a
rising
star
and
his
future
holds
only
bigger
things.
Its
time
for
the
nice
guy
to
finish
first,
and
through
his
music
Nitty
shows
it’s
possible
to
go
against
the
grain,
do
the
right
thing,
and
still
come
out
on
top. |
