Artist
When two unconventional music minds, came together in 2000 as a musical duo, it resulted in Atlanta-based hip-hop soulsters "Slick & Rose." Named “Breakout Act of 2005” by Billboard Magazine and “Best Atlanta R&B/Soul Act of 2005” by Creative Loafing Magazine, Nikki "Slick" Ervin counts her Mobile, Alabama upbringing as having the most influence in her musical background while Sabrina "Rose" Harvey, born and raised in the concrete jungle of New York City, credits her love of hip-hop and her Jamaican heritage with influencing much of her early years. Slick & Rose’s combined musical style, is fluid, and not true to just one music genre. “We describe our music as a tree,” says Nikki Slick “The roots are hip-hop and the branches are R&B, Reggae, Jazz, Soul and Rock” Their palate of musical inspirations seems to reflect their musical prowess – the ladies admire legends like Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughn and Ella Fitzgerald as well as modern day divas Lauren Hill, Esthero and Gwen Stefani.
