They say that nice guys finish las
t, but four young men repping Houston, Texas are out to prove that saying
wrong. Through beats, rhymes, and musings about life, The Nic
eguys are musically what&rsquo\;s happening now. A self-contained unit, th

While they make beautif ul music together, it&rsquo\;s clear that they&rsquo\;re all genuinely fri ends as well.
While often
times Hip Hop can feel inaccessible to some, The Niceguys craft a sound th
at everyone can relate to. &ldquo\;We are just regular dudes, we&rsquo\;re
genuine,&rdquo\; says Free. Their &ldquo\;people first&rdquo\; mentality
trickles into their music, which represents everyday people, while at the
same time reinventing the wheel sonically. Always nice to fans, the group
prides themselves on being down to earth.
While most artists take an entire career
to find their signature sound, The Niceguys have found theirs in less than
five years. \;
