It’s always cool to see talent running in the family. Check out Nikki Loraine, a talented singer / songwriter who also happens to be the sister of Ne-Yo. She’s just released her brand new single “No Trust”, and you can hear that powerful vocals run in the family!

Nikki began her journey as an artist by studying classical music at the Las Vegas Academy for the Performing Arts. While attending the Academy, she along with two other classmates, formed KNIA, a 3 girl R&B/POP group. Nikki immediately took the spotlight in KNIA, as the lead singer and songwriter.
