Bio

YBN Nahmir bio

He has a real chance to become one of the most prominent rappers of his generation. As the member of YBN band (in the company of Cordae and Almighty Jay) he released the first set of songs “YBN: The Mixtape” in December 2018 and it was certified as gold by RIAA.

His real name is Nicholas Simmons. He was born in 1999 in Birmingham, AL. Music has been the part of his life since childhood, but he had never taken it too seriously. Nick was interested in playing computer games instead, and he appeared on YouTube in 2012-2013 for the first time as a gamer.

He played video games live and soon became popular among other YouTubers. His favorite game was “Grand Theft Auto V”. Many viewers gathered near the screens to watch him playing. During such sessions, Simmons’ fans noticed that he was good at rapping (he performed some music while playing).

His friends advised him to try his hand as a hip hop artist. Nick recorded some songs at home (he used a microphone and a sock instead of a filter to record his first tracks). In 2015 he uploaded his first song on YouTube, but he didn’t become popular overnight. It took the rapper 2 years to present his first hit – “Rubbin Off the Paint”. Within just a few days the song gathered more than 20 million views on YouTube.

After the success of the track, Nick understood that music can become the source of his wealth. He and his homeboy Almighty Jay, with whom they played freestyle music at parties, turned into the members of YBN band.

YBN Nahmir tells that he tries to be different from all the others, and that is his main secret. He doesn’t copy anyone, but still, there are rappers, who serve as his inspirations. Lil Yase and Key Glock are among them. By the way, he is in good terms with Key and even opened his show in Tuscaloosa.

In spite of an impressive career in the music industry, YBN Nahmir didn’t quit his education. In 2018 he graduated from Clay-Chalkville High School. Unfortunately, he had to study online after becoming popular, because (as he explained) his classmates turned into his fans and paid too much attention to him at school.


Interesting and fun facts

  1. He linked with his first producers through the Internet. He crossed the ways with some of them, while he was gaming at YouTube. Besides, he connected with some other producers, which at first promised him to make records for free, but then asked for some payment. Now he is produced by his friend Hoodzone.
  2. He is a dating a beautiful young woman, named Alycia Tyre, professionally known as Sahlt. Alycia is an Instagram star and model. She is two years older than her boyfriend YBN Nahmir.
  3. His height is 5 ft 7 in and his weight is 135 pounds.
  4. He chose the stage moniker YBN Nahmir, not by chance. YBN means “Young Boss Niggaz” and “Nahmir” comes from his friend’s name “Shamir”. He just changed the first letters “Sh” for “N”, because his real name – Nick – starts from it. “Nahmir sounds warmer”, the rapper added.
  5. Before he became the part of the group YBN, he presented a solo mixtape “Believe in the Glo”, which enjoyed modest success.
