The Video:
"Let me start by saying I don't have time for this," says Niceguys emcee Yves Saint. "What could you say about my work ethic that hasn't been said about indentured servants? I work all day, I grind all day, I shine because I grind." Along with DJ Candlestick and producers Christolph & Free, The Niceguys give an exclusive look into the business end of the making of their debut full-length LP, The Show, out September 28th through 265 Pro/The Pi Group.
DIsplaying the mental and physical discipline necessary to succeed in their Green Room EP track, "10,000 Hours," The Niceguys present a day at the office (Wire Road Studio); full of heavy drinking, DJing infants and Yves's fully-loaded, .9mm "wallet." "I remember when I woke up this morning," says Christolph, "not that I went to sleep."
Look for The Niceguys' debut full-length LP, The Show, available for free download and through digital retailers September 28th.
This September 2010, The Niceguys will be performing at three shows at the House of Blues in Houston. The dates and other artists are as follows:
September 4th: With Talib Kweli
September 16th: Frontline 3 Tour

The
Background:
The Niceguys epitomize the law of dynamics. They stimulate development and progress, and they also thrive off their own original ideas. The Niceguys' MC, DJ, and Producers consist of four young men by the names of Yves (MC), Candlestick (DJ), Free (Producer), and Christolph (Producer), respectively. Experiencing The Niceguys' chemistry live on stage is when the audience can witness that there is more to the group than meets the ear. The guys' personality and talent, as well as the lyrical content of their music, combine to provide a feel-good atmosphere for whoever is around. Having released The Green Room EP for free download in late 2009, The Niceguys have been quickly garnering attention from writers, bloggers, and tastemakers alike. The Niceguys' debut LP, The Show, will be dropping in the fall of 2010 via The Pi Group.
