Biography:
A
"Nominee" is defined as a person who
is appointed to an office or position but the
artist, Nominee himself, boosts the definition
up another notch by saying that he is a person
who is selected to do God’s work on
the devils playground. From the point of view
that no one man is perfect soul and with two
sides to every story, Nominee exploits the positives
and negatives that create this one world. With
influences from such artists as Scarface, Twista,
Tech N9ne, 8Ball & MJG, Yukmouth, and others.
Nominee developed his own fast twisted lyrical
style that makes him stand out from the rest.
Born
and raised in Colorado, this man of Vietnamese
and Caucasian descent has been on a roller coaster
ride in the music scene for a while. He is a
self promoter and net worker who exploded on
the music scene in ’96 with his click
B.U.MOB, which consists of Wild, King Real,
Quija, and Tuff.
Their
first release was "B.U.MOB presents Trinity"
in April ’04. With over 1500 cds pushed,
B.U.MOB gained exposure through the local scene
performing at shows with almost every artist
in Colorado thats making names for themselves.
In June ’05, a death in the family
put a halt on Nominee’s music for
about 6 months. Others in the click continued
to do their thing but Nominee too a break to
tend to his family and clear his mind.
In
February of ’06, he returned to the
studio to record tracks for his solo debut "Die
Hard Vol. 1". While recording for this
album he solely put together the N.T.M. promotional
disc that did 5000 copies. He recorded tracks
with Bizzy Bone of Bone Thugs and Harmony, Young
Droop, and broadened his horizon with features
on other Colorado albums. Also during this time,
other click members chose to go their own separate
paths so that’s when Nominee solidified
that he was a solo artist.
Since
the release of "Die Hard" in October
’06, Nominee has been recognized by
fans musicians around the world with the help
of shows, myspace, CDBaby.com, and iTunes, distributing
1500 plus in sales and downloads. His myspace
has accumulated more than a quarter million
plays and counting (UPDATE: SOMEONE HACKED AND
DELETED MY PREVIOUS ACCOUNT SO THIS IS MY NEW
ONE). He’s performed in front of packed
houses at the 2008 Sex Show @ the Denver merchandise
Mart, Herman’s Hideaway, Toads Tavern,
Gothic, Boulder Theater, and other hot spots
through out the Denver metro area. Nominee is
now flying back in forth from California preparing
his new album "ONE MILE ABOVE".
