Becoming Nikki Lynette

My live performance at the Taste of Chicago Showcase (the one where I had NO VOICE)

By Nikki Lynette, March 29, 2011 at 6:57 pm

Everybody and their momma posted their South By Southwest footage last week so I waited until this week to post mine. LoL!

This performance was extra dramatic because of the fact that I had woken up that morning with NO VOICE. None. Like, I could not speak above a whisper. And it wasn't even my fault. It's a long story...I'll post another video explaining what happened later this week...Seriously. I had drama.

Anywayyyyy, enjoy the video!

You've heard my work, you just didn't know it was me. I sing/rap/write/produce and tv shows, commercials, and video games play my songs. I'm the opinionated and mouthy leader of Team Bad Ass who means what she says and says what she means. I'm random. I think outside the box. I have no shame. Please enjoy the show.
