Nick Rage

Born in the heart of Pittsburgh, upcoming phenomenon Nick Rage is quickly becoming a household name not just nationally, but internationally too. Rewinding to the early stages of his career, Nick began writing music between the ages of 11 to 13, and made his first recording at the age of 16, lending his vocals on other artist’s songs. Nick then began to polish his style, which has been compared to the likes of LL Cool J, and Tech N9ne, which are coincidently two of Nick Rage’s major influences, alongside the likes of Ill Bill and Royce Da 5’9.

Nick Rage’s debut release came at the age of 19, in the form of “Burgh Villain Vol.1”. This created the initial buzz around Pittsburgh for Nick, and gave him the opportunity to hook up with the likes of Cassius, Conspiracy, Pheenixx, G30, Tw12ve Gauge, Young Kap and Moine Luke. Then Nick Rage’s career rocketed quicker than an N.A.S.A aircraft, as he has featured on the DefJam DMA mixtape, along with DJ Domination’s “Coast to Coast Mixtape”. The respective names speak for themselves; however Nick really put his first foot in the industry when he hooked up with Royce Da 5’9 to record the track “Burgh to the D”

Now at the age of 22 Nick Rage has returned with his sophomore mixtape “Dead to Society”. The sixteen-track mixtape displays Nick’s ability to switch up styles from an unearthly underground approach, to a very appealing, and radio friendly sound. Nick Rage possesses the best of both worlds, and “Dead To Society” caters for every musical taste. With already over 500 copies handed out locally, Nick intends to push his name internationally, and “Dead to Society” is proving to be the foundations for him to do so.
