Who Is Nine Vicious?
Treyvion Deronta Echols, aka Nine Vicious, is an American up and coming rapper hailing from Athens, Georgia, who has recently been the talk of the town in regard to rap music and the music scene as a whole. Why? You might ask, Well, picture this: a guy out of nowhere comes into the spotlight with a unique style but still paying homage to legends of the game like Tupac, Gucci Mane, and most notably, his idol, Young Thug. From getting a cosign from Young Thug to being trolled on social media for being corny, let’s have a look at everything there is to know about Nine Vicious!
Musical Career
In my close to a decade of writing celebrity biographies, it’s very rare that you meet such a polarizing figure as Nine Vicious, both on a likeable and, on the other hand, not so likeable side. So normally I’d start with yapping through his career and how he has made a come-up, but I feel it’s kind of out of place, so let’s start with…
Why is Nine Vicious Famous
Obviously, we all know that he’s a recording artist, albeit very new to the game, but what has really set him apart from his peers is his choice of aesthetics. He seems to be a student of the game, so much so that all (and I mean all) his album covers pay homage to an album cover of the past. From copying the covers of artists like Gucci Mane, Tupac, and even Michael Jackson. Due to his alleged “paying homage” to his idols in music, many people on social media have taken to making fun of both him and his music, claiming he lacks authenticity and is leaning more towards being the “next Young Thug.” And I get it; he’s the new gender-bending, squawky vocal, and flamboyant mannerism youngster on the block; of course he’ll get people talking. But is the hate justifiable? I’ll leave that for you to decide, since everyone has their own music taste. What I can say for certain is that his beat selection is top-notch, and he uses tons of samples from global classics.
Grooming Allegations
After his fans and haters alike raised concerns about grooming allegations that were raised against him, Nine Vicious did the unthinkable. Instead of denying the allegations, he seemed to actually admit to them via a song. Although I can’t tell for sure whether he’s just trolling, his haters have for sure believed the allegations even more if they hadn’t before.
Physical Appearance and Real Name
As mentioned at the beginning of the article, Nine Vicious’s real name is Treyvion Deronta Echols, a unique name for a unique artist. His appearance is even more unconventional than his name, as he blurs the gender line so much that many people have mistaken him for being queer. His whole aesthetic resembles that of a young Young Thug (see what I did there😂). He has his nails in French tips, lays edges, and has numerous piercings, making him really peculiar and interesting. He also has a couple of tattoos, especially on his arms.
