 After performing at SXSW and appearing onmajor publications, Miami’s Niko Allen is keeping up his grind and proving why he is next up in the music game.
Today, Niko is back with a visual to his latest R&B track which tackles the issues of domestic violence. The song is titled “WYB” and is produced by Z. Without a fear speaking on the sensitive issue, Niko is able to bring it to the forefront and really deliver a very reasonating track. The record takes the perspective of asking women, “Why You B’sing” on leaving the situation? He simply, and sincerely, asks the question, why do women stay in abusive relationships? The visual shows the saga of many women, returning to a cycle of abuse. Niko wanted to touch on this subject, spreading the important message in honor of Women’s History Month coming up.
“If I had to describe Niko Allen in so many words, I would say “Bedroom Bully,” the proof is in the music.. my style of music is in the same lane as, Ty Dolla Sign, Eric Bellinger, Sammie, Jeremih, and Verse Simmonds to name a few…
The City (Miami) stays lit… so I keep that same energy in the music. Whether we turning up or winding down my melodies, harmonies, and word play puts you in a good mood. I recently release a project titled “Not My Intentions,” which is available for streaming on all platforms.
I’m currently working on a new EP, “untitled”.. set to release sometime in February of this year. As far as features, we have a few surprises… you guys gotta stick around to find out!”
Check out the new visual below and be sure to leave a comment on what you think!
