Nichols, born as Stephan Nichols, had only one goal in his teen, was becoming an elite athlete, practicing different sports such as athletics, football, Thai boxing and swimming, Nichols' s leads drive until back problems stopped any possibility of career, so he decided to move towards marketing studies after his tray.
But fate does not hear well, Nichols, foaming hip hop and zouk parties from Thursday to Sunday with his friends, ends up creating friendships with his dancing skills that allow him to attend the hip hop life (IZB parties, The Palace, Black Sugar parties...). He also dragged in youth club of Vitry and especially in that one in Saint Denis, where many of rappers and singers could meet.
When one of his cousins formed a band live in 1990, it is normally offered to him to take the place of lead vocals (actually he was the only one who knew how to sing a little bit.. lol!) follows three years of meetings (Kaysha, Organiz, Roots Neg, Afrojazz, Kareen ...) and free styles in free radio stations such as Lutece ...
His meeting with G. Raald, who introduces him to Ange Boston, changes everything. Nichols signed for a “zouk rn'b" album @ Créoland in late 1992, WIA (West Indies Attitude) was born. Experience abortion after the first album inconclusive.
Nichols chose to go solo with a new team, Artson Production. In 1995, he released first solo, then the single "Woy" in 1997, but the real trigger is "Strip Tease" in 1999, the second and last album produced by Artson Prod. Nichols, disappointed by the attitude of his producer, broke his contract as an artist.
With Ali, met in 1996, he seeks a new color to its own musical style that already feels in "Strip Tease" and "Ride It".
In 2001 released the album "100% Player (licensed with Couleurs Music) but again, the distribution and promotion proves to be not up to his expectations.
He soon realizes that it is better to move quickly to something else, so less than a year later, the album "From Zouk to rn'b" (licensed with Pastel Prod in 2002) comes out, but once again promoting inadequate.
Understanding that his success in the media and public for "Strip Tease" could increase further, he creates with his manager, Krystel Deby since 1999, "Erogen Music" to exploit the music business at best. They choose a new distributor willing to invest in a long project. Harold Singamalon, owner of “Section Zouk ", brings its guarantees and thus released “Hot" (distributed by Section Zouk 2004) basking in the success of “Zouk Bordel" (on the Section Zouk Millennium 2003 mixtape) and Kerinha (on the Cape Zouk 2 mixtape @Espace Music Tropica 2003).
Finally free to do as it pleases, Nichols embarked on the production and sign under the new label some new talent such as Jamice, Iron, Michael, IIWayz, Mrick, Marcia, Priscilla ... while composing tracks for artists such as Kaysha "Si tu veux de moi"; Talina "Sé Sa", "Je suis prête", "Nha dor," ; Warren "A jamais", "A dé" ; Sylvie Davison "plaisir charnel" without counting the Cape Verdean artists such William "Bate corpo"; Elisio "tu n’oublieras jamais”..
In 2006 the album "Seven" (distributed by Section Zouk) establishes the international reputation of the artist with a big tour (France, Cape Verde, United States, Canada) with a band. And projects under Erogen Music’s license intensified in Portugal, with the project "Kizomba All Stars" and the album of Denis Graca “DG” a famous Cape Verdean artist.
Spring 2008: hard his meetings with Haitian artists, such as Ti Kabzy, Nickenson Prudhomme or Elie Lapointe etc ... Erogen Music released "Erogen Kompa", a concept that precedes a long term project to develop... " Nuit magique "and" She is my" mark the trend Zouk-Konpa
June 2009: After three years of touring, Nichols released his eighth solo album, "Ladies Night" (Debs Music Distribution), the 20-year career are close ... The title "Tocam" is hugely successful all around the world... Enough said lol!
In 2010, he directed and produced the mixtape "ZONEROGEN 2" (Debs Music distribution) which will announce the return of the artist zouk Iron'G with the title "Weekend Special"
